Yay! My computer is working again. I didn’t get a chance to really take a look at what was wrong with it until just now… I’m on my lunch break from work. Did a quick glance yesterday morning and nothing looked burnt out, and looked like the water cooling system wasn’t leaking, so I just let things sit. Sometimes just that will fix the weirdest problems.
… no such luck, though. Today, I tried the power button again, and nothing happened. Looked more carefully at all the wires and such, but nothing seemed amiss. Tried the next thing that hit me, which was to reset my UPS. (Uninterruptible Power Supply, not United Parcel Service for you non-1337 folks out there.) It booted up like a dream.
I guess I need a new battery for the UPS. But in the meantime, computer still usable!
yay
