This was either caused by a faulty USB device or faulty USB wiring..

Its a freak thing, in 2 years working here its the first computer I have seen melted.

My mates video card however did explode, but the system died and thus nothing happened from it except an expensive upgrade :P

P.S. In less than 3 hours, almost 500 hits to that gallery :P

Yeah I was only joking, I also have never seen anything like it. PC parts usually just die and thats it huh.

That guy wants to think himself lucky his house didn't burn down.

hmm what was going through the mind of the guy who assembled that machine?

'hmmm i think the 240v goes in here *plugs into cpu fan and mainboard power supply* yeah thats right!'

hahah seems 12v and 5v can do a lot of damage!
