■I think the Pentium D CPU I bought for my XP machine just died - the PC
│had been failing more and more ever since I put it in, then today it
│stopped POSTing entirely (;´Д`)
│
│I thought it might be the motherboard finely giving up the ghost, but I
│put the old P4 CPU back in and now it boots perfectly again ヽ(´ー`)ノ
│
│Sayonara, silky smooth Dual Core™ experience...

└■It has waited in some dusty box for more than a decade, so it would get bought
│by you and used to run games as old has itself. It had no regrets (´人`)

└■That is a nice thought, though the shitty "2006 prebuilt"-tier CPU
cooler I was using in the middle of a global heatwave (I don't even
have AC (;´Д`)) while trying to run a game that seemed to double as a
CPU torture test probably didn't help...
I did buy a l33t cooler for it, but I couldn't install it - the back-
plate from the old one is stuck to the motherboard with some kind of
strong adhesive, and it seemed like I might break something if I used
any more force to try and remove it (;´Д`)
