I was taking a look at the inside of my computer and noticed that the main case fan wasn't spinning.  Mind you that my bro built my computer for me, so I had very little knowledge on building them.  Anyway, I turned off my comp, and decided to connect the power cable of the fan to one of the double headed cables that was free. When I tried to turn on my computer, it wouldln't turn on.  I began to panick.  This computer is expensive and I didn't want to spend a lot of money buying new parts.  I tried looking at what  I unplgged, hoping that it was just a wire and that the motherboard wasn't damaged.  After looking around for 15 minutes, I noticed that the wire that says "power sw" was unplugged.  I wasn't sure where it went.  After looking at the board for 20 minutes I noticed where it possibly went.  I tried to plug it in, but the space was too damn small for my had to fit in.  15 minutes later i put it in.  I pressed the reset button thinking it was the power button, and nothing happened. I was going to cry myself to sleep.  A second later I realized I pressed the wrong one, and then wallaaah, my PC turned on.  NOw with a working fan!

I was thinking about suicide when my windows partition wouldn't load because of a messed up boot sector a few hours ago. Thankfully I got it working. I seriously would consider suicide if all 50gb of music, 20 something GB of videos, and about 300mb of aim messenger logs got deleted, along with everything else.

You should probably buy an external harddrive and back up everything...

I have no money, and if I did I'd spend it on something that I really want to but shouldn't.

No, I cant tell you guys what to do but this kind of topic is not allowed. Blog worthy topics are almost always locked. Its late at night though so the mods wont even see this topic most likely...
