Okay, first, how is this related to DB? This thread's going to be deleted.
Second: Poor you! You can't have everything you want. Maybe you don't need that thing you were going to buy for the holidays. Maybe you'll survive if you don't buy everything you want. That being said, any number of things could have gone wrong with your hardware. 1) Did you put everything together correctly? Are all the fans plugged in the the right places? Did you mount the CPU correctly? Does all of your RAM work correctly? 2) Are all pieces you bought compatible with each other? Did you get a graphics card that is compatible with your motherboard? 3) Either steal Windows by downloading an 'unauthentic' copy, or suck it up and buy the CD. 4) Why did you choose to build a computer? It takes forever, and costs more. I built a computer (RIP), and decided that I will never do it again. Google ibuypowe r, wait for a sale, get computer in a couple of days.
Edit: Everything has worked marvelously with the computer I bought from the aforementioned website - only 1 thing: when I unboxed it, not trusting the guys who assembled it, I opened the case up just to make sure everything was put together properly. And the case fan was unplugged. Yeah...better than the processor fan, but still...
