Check your house insurance as mine covers me for accidental damage to electrical items such as TV, Radio Laptops etc.

The PSU is fried. Not sure about the rest. Stripped it out to go back as the company that supplied it are willing to replace it. It's a 620W Corsair & there not cheap. In a couple of weeks Ill find out what else is goosed......

Only just got it back together. Only the PSU thankfully & all it cost was a fiver to post it back. Got brave & unlocked the dormant cores. Now a quad core at 3.2Ghz so it's a lot faster than I paid for. :bounce:
