Computer crisis seems to be averted

Brynn took it and opened it up and found some loose connections, redid the soldering. She built my old computer, and that beast was chugging along for 5 years before it finally went down.
So far the computer seems to be running better, but we'll see if it keeps running, or if it decides to keep throwing issues.
Fingers crossed!
Nevermind, still BSODing. But I think it's the HDD. I'm replacing it and seeing if that fixes the fucking issue lol.

She had to solder just about EVERYTHING because barely anything was soldered and what was was half-assed.
Today is IT fire monday...plenty to put out.
Meanwhile I don't know how to deal with the wires breaking on the LED box for my red panda suit.
HDDs suck, and I feel like the last systems with HDDs were intentionally saddled with unreliable ones to coerce you to upgrade sooner (HDDs fell out of popularity after 2021, which means my laptop was one of the last ones to have it before SD cards became the new standard storage medium for potato laptops).
All joking aside, SSD’s can fail too, so depending on the age of it, replacing it is probably a good idea anyway.
But yeah I figure ANY drive can fail. SSDs just seem to be more durable and longer lasting
