holy shit that'll create a small magnetic field around your computer, destroying all data, and more inportantly building in size for every bit you download, which will led to an explosion equal to a supernova, creating a blackhole and we'll all die!!! YOU IDIOT!!!!naw, I'm just playing... I don't think it does anything... that or I'm thinking of a different metal ring... ------------------ Posted by CatKnight on May 11 2001,21:26
hmm whats this big black square in the middle of my motherboard? probably doesn't do anything important...I think I'll rip it off just for fun!

i would say heatsink, but on the modem?! yay, lets overclock our modems!------------------ Posted by L33T_h4x0r_d00d on May 12 2001,23:18
It could have been your cmos battery or perhaps a "chad" from your mobo. Sometimes they dont punch the ground connectors on the mobos all the way throught and they fall of later(like a belly button) and youll move you case and hear a rattle.------------------ SSBAIBAEDW YHENNYNIIA FO.AV..GCL 0U.LA..HKR NL.LD..TEU .D.YE...DS ....D..... |
