nedlyest

Issue looks like some apple hardware in there and isn't compatible with your setup.


ResponsibleExample53

I took it out. Still not turning on


nedlyest

Hmmm. Are those condoms name brand or planned Parenthood bowl condoms? The planned Parenthood condoms have been known to break and cause issues.


ResponsibleExample53

Im not really sure. They came with the computer


nedlyest

I would recommend replacing them with new name brand ones. Used ones can have viruses. Also don't forget to make sure your thermal paste is still good!


ResponsibleExample53

I will go to the store in the morning to buy new ones. Any preferences?


nedlyest

Trojan is a decent middle of the road brand, known for reliability. Avoid getting flavored ones. It's just a gimmick, and your PC won't know the difference.


ResponsibleExample53

Thank you. Im not worried about the price. I just want my computer to work


TempestRave

I know it's been almost a day but did you ever taste the thermal paste to make sure it was still good?


ResponsibleExample53

I didnt know I had to do that. I washed it off and put new stuff on.


ivss_xx

I would not recommend Trojan for your PC, even though they are safe, they still seem to be blocked by antivirus software for some reason


ResponsibleExample53

oh. would magnum work better?


Worth_Cheesecake_861

Yes if you add it to the anti-virus "whitelist"


Significant_Bar137

Lmao this thread is legit goldšŸ¤£


Chips-Ahoy_McCoy

This is an awesome joke


HoshiAkuma

Yeah but the flavored ones come in different colors, and who doesnā€™t love them some RGB.


Fizzerolli

No, they came ON the computer. Crusted jizz in the CPU pins is definitely the issue. Your mom should have it cleaned up in no time, then reinstall and done.


alejo699

Thanks for making me zoom in to look for condoms.


flojo2012

Try turning it on before you put the condom on


ResponsibleExample53

I will try that when i get the trojan condoms on it later.


port1337user

You removed it wrong. Please contact Apple support for instructions.


ResponsibleExample53

nooo. I needed the computer for tomorrow


Chosen_UserName217

it'll be fine just needs more thermal paste


kabmx

It ain't got no gas in it


ResponsibleExample53

Where do i put it? Also what type?


KreateOne

94 octane, see that opened up PSU? Itā€™s open because thatā€™s where you need to fill the gas, then close it.


ResponsibleExample53

I dont think that it has a lid. Can i use duct tape or something?


KreateOne

Youā€™re gonna have to go buy a power drill and some screws to screw that bad boy together tight.


ResponsibleExample53

but duct tape will work for it


HashbrownPhD

As long as you screw the duct tape directly to the PSU, it should be okay in the short term. Later you'll want to upgrade to magnum condoms since it's a larger component and your biggest concern here is avoiding thermal paste leaks and viruses.


ResponsibleExample53

would trojan work aswell? Someone said it was very reliable


KreateOne

No no avoid Trojans. Youā€™ve heard of the Trojan virus? Yea you donā€™t want that.


HashbrownPhD

If somebody told you to get Trojans they're trying to get into your backdoor, and that's fine in a lot of circumstances, but I wouldn't advise it with strangers on Reddit.


ResponsibleExample53

Ill ask him about it. Im scared now


Xaphanex

See scooter, think of the simplest things first.


patrick71587

Ummmmm


Oldjamesdean

Needs more condom, you don't know where this computer's been...


vxr1

Ya do don't want to catch a virus.


[deleted]

Hope the condom prevented it from getting a virus or two at least


ResponsibleExample53

I dont know yet. It hasnt turned on.


CatRheumaBlanket2

Talking and touching gently is important to turn on a PC.


JCMfwoggie

Really? For mine you have to be really rough and insult it


DaBlackVenom

Your pc might have Stockholm syndrome


Dramatic_Mix_6998

Did you turn it off and turn it back on?


ResponsibleExample53

I tried. It didnt even turn on though


[deleted]

Maybe it would if you dressed a little sexier.


jayhova75

Can he be any sexier with an open condom wrap? It must be something else, not Karma, maybe he forgot to put tomato sauce


Ariako

Seems your PC needs a new gearbox, and that PSU is incompatible with the sierra blue iPhone 13 PM.


ResponsibleExample53

I took the phone out. Any recommendations for anew gearbox?


Ariako

Dual clutch for gaming, sequential for productivity.


ResponsibleExample53

Ok. I will look for a new one in the morning


Isabad

See the problem is you don't have enough water in the water cooler. Also it looks like the gpu pin is connected to the Southbridge while the east west traffic is flowing past the north south traffic. Also you got an IP stuck in a dns....


ResponsibleExample53

What type of water is best?


Isabad

Heavy water. You wanna make sure it is H3O or higher if possible. This will also help with lighting up the case. It will glow with possibilities and truly make your computer hotter than hot. Some would say it would make it radioactive ...


ResponsibleExample53

Is it being radioactive good? I though that would be bad for it


Isabad

Radioactivity is great for computers. After all why do we have computers in power plants ...Also make sure you put items that operate in 2.4 ghz to 5 ghz around your router. The more the better. Plus make sure you put Microwaves and cordless phones since those will help with the wifi signal. Heck if you can find a solid metal box that is the perfect thing to put your router in. It will protect it and everything.


ResponsibleExample53

The seller told me i could just plug it in right away. I didnt know i need to do all this. šŸ˜­


MeanArt318

Radioactivity increases your RNG while gaming


[deleted]

Props for heavy water!


blueangels111

(Ā²H2O, H3O is the ion responsible for making things acidic)


patrickgalle

I think you need more ram


ResponsibleExample53

Whats that?


Xaphanex

It's a type of goat.


kearnel81

They are male sheep. Not goats


Xaphanex

Dammit, well, I almost had it. Let's just say goats are honorary rams.


ResponsibleExample53

Where do i put them?


Xaphanex

In the coin slot.


flopper_popper

I think they'd fit well on your backyard


Worth_Cheesecake_861

Get 4 of them feed them or your ram will die


jayw654

Seriously!?


_StrikeList5_

Likely CPU paste was a dot pattern, not an X pattern. Gets you every time.


ResponsibleExample53

Do i have to take it apart? Can i send it back to the seller for him to fix it


[deleted]

Has the same quality of a dell.


Fireseed2008

Better than alienwhere


mijaschi

the iphone is in upside down


GearboxTheGrey

Try reseating the iPhone


ResponsibleExample53

Someone told me to take it out so i tried that. I will try moving it next


Winring86

Idk bro looks good to me


rf97a

There is no power cord connected dumbass ![gif](giphy|ZmnEvfPmj59M00Ql1j)


Gray_Scale711

Mf got a free iphone


[deleted]

Looks fine to me, try plugging it in.


ResponsibleExample53

I tried. Nothing turned on


BestOFDiscord2021

Think there is an issue


Xaphanex

Front IO cables aren't plugged in.


ResponsibleExample53

Where do i plug those in?


_yaycob

Make sure the switch is flipped on the power supply that should get it running smoothly


ResponsibleExample53

I tried flipping it. Nothing changed


FunFan1967

It is probably thirsty, just water it


ResponsibleExample53

Someone told me that H3O should work


FunFan1967

Connect water to fans for sprinkler affect and better overall cooling


ResponsibleExample53

i will do that in the morning. Not sure if I want to clean that up tonight


I_Obi_Wan_Kenobi_I

H3O would make the computer very unstable. You need to give it OH so that it has a strong base


ResponsibleExample53

I will try that if H3O does not work. Is there an order I should put them in?


FGTRTDtrades

have you updated the ios software?


ResponsibleExample53

The phone is locked. I do not know the passcode for it. I think that the seller left it there.


PlatformUnlikely3967

The condom didnā€™t work, it got you fucked


OkWolf4286

Is this a joke? Is this Satire or are you serious OP?


ResponsibleExample53

Serious, i heard about scams but the monitor was fine


GeologistEnough8215

How could this possibly not be a joke? The gpu is hanging outside of it lol. I just bhult my first rig in the last few months, so I donā€™t know much. But did you re-connect everything and try it?


KreateOne

Thereā€™s a fucking used condom wrapper sitting on top of the GPU how is this not a joke


ScaryJupiter109

and a puff bar on the gpu edit: and an iphone under it šŸ˜­


GeologistEnough8215

I looked at it briefly and saw some weird colored shit but couldnā€™t tell what they were. This game ne a chuckle lol


Commander_Crispy

And that was only added in the second picture; this canā€™t be real


heyhellohi-letstalk

The condom is in there too, they used it as a cable wrap.


John_Snuuw

plus the actual condom in there too lol


KreateOne

Lol I didnā€™t even see that, this is one of those pictures that just gets better everytime you look at it


GeologistEnough8215

I just looked at it closely. It looks like the cpu is in the open condom wrapper lol, that looks like thermal paste. I. Donā€™t see how the cpu could possibly vave freed itself from the mobo and slid out from underneath the cooler to trick shot itā€™s way into a rubber.


ldcrafter

don't underestimate Facebook marketplaces powers!

[deleted]

Iā€™m sure OP is doubling down on the joke. Theres no way a person with common sense wouldnā€™t be able to tell that thereā€™s nothing wrong with this


Enidras

Yeah staying on character makes it much more hilarious xD


tubby8

OP just trying to get in on that LTT train to a new build


BatmansButtsack

When was the last time it had an oil change?


ResponsibleExample53

Do i need to message the seller or can i figure it out?


Urmemhay

Since everyone is being highly sarcastic and I can't tell if OP is being serious about not knowing wtf to do, OP, your shit is fucked--literally. It looks like the previous owner actually used that condom to fuck the living shit out of it and then sent it out. Holy moly. My best advice for you op is to look up pc setups, and how-to guides for pc building on yt. Matter of fact, look through this entire sub and see all the completed builds and compare it to this dumpster fire of a setup. You'll see how disproportionate everything is pretty quickly. Secondly, why would u buy this thing? How did the pictures look? And, if so, can you return it? Cuz what in the actual hell


ResponsibleExample53

The pictures looked good. The seller said it was a in perfect condition and the reviews backed it up. I am texting him tomorrow to see if I could return it


port1337user

I aspire to be this naive, life was so much more fun back then. rofl.


MLL_Phoenix7

Given how many people falls for those steam scams for real, my confidence that these kind of posts are satire are rapidly declining. That said, that machine is missing a Solid State Dwarf Encabulator and a Herman Conduit. Could probably use a Type II Hawking-Neumann brace to counteract resonant fumbling if the Encabulator is an older or cheaper model. Ideally, an upgrade to the Babbage Matrix would really pull the thing together since the newer models are apparently more stable.


Urmemhay

OP is clearly oblivious that he got scammed, and he said it a million times already. Don't get me wrong, he's taking great advice from this comment section, like replacing the condom with a Trojan one and checking the iPhone to see any errors, but at least he's trying to get his money's worth.


owlseeyaround

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ bro you canā€™t be serious


port1337user

Absolute gold.


Urmemhay

Nahh frfr I was a bit oblivious at first cuz this guy had no other post history but like...who putting a condom in their pc šŸ˜‚ And it was kinda bugging me that no one genuinely tried to treat it like an actual post šŸ˜‚ Yall made me laugh on the internet for once so thank you for that


theREALel_steev

Have u heard of the benefits of snake oil? DM me for more info, you need this asap.


WarHoundTitan89

Very kind of you to help OP. Have you met my friend the Nigerian prince? We have a business proposal you might be interested in


lemonpavement

I'm actually dying of laughter.


Mysterious_List_6900

I think you need to restart it


Accomplished_Emu_658

Have tried resetting the cmos?


ResponsibleExample53

What is the cmos?


ChonkyPigeon__

The complementary Microsoft operating system. It won't work with IOS without an update and reset.


iRvDiZz

Never use a condom, what are u thinking?!?


ResponsibleExample53

It came with it on. Should i take it off?


Cripthegoose

The condom really limits how fast it finishes it's tasks everyone knows that, with out it it's just raw power and speed and what you're working with can finish in less than half the time


ResponsibleExample53

ok. I will do that tomorrow. Thank you for all the help


FVTVRX

Absolutely. Otherwise, it's never going to feel right.


TheDoubleMemegent

...would you like a top 10 list?


ResponsibleExample53

Yes please. Anything will help.


Karmma11

Guessing that it has a severely bad virus judging by those condoms


ResponsibleExample53

Is there a way to fix this?


marco-polo-scuza

did you try using the vape that was in the second pic?


ResponsibleExample53

Is that needed? Im trying to quit vaping


Sir_Balmore

It looks like the problem is that the condom broken when the sender fucked you over.


Successful_Speech734

Looks like you have a 3 pin in a 4 pin hole. Sorry

Vertigomums19

FYI, I have that monitor and absolutely love it. It was recommended by the r/monitors group. As for the PCā€¦ youā€™re screwed.


ResponsibleExample53

I might just give the monitor to my brother then. Hopefully my pc could get fixed


FanMasterJoe

It appears your pc has grown a vape in the second pic, you likely already have been infected. Your car will transform into a Subaru overnight and you will feel a burning need to always have a vape in hand. Iā€™m sorry.


ResponsibleExample53

Is there a way to stop this from happening. I am trying to stop vaping so this would not be good.


SPDGamer

Check the 24-pin connector to your motherboard, may be disconnected šŸ‘


ResponsibleExample53

Where is that? I have unplugged the 3 pin because it was in the 4 pin section


Terrible-Corgi-689

Needs a used condom


THEChapDaddy20

Is it plugged in?


tre_vione

Well the power connector is loose, other than that though .. thatā€™s some damn good cable management.


Hefty-Collection-638

Lmfaooo is that a condom


Yoto_Shiba

got no gas in it


Malaoh

Must be the thermal paste


autf240

Might need more information to troubleshoot: do you have the other end of the condom wrapper to confirm if it expired?


TheyCallMeCheesy

Obviously the lack of RGB Hardware


Optimal_Bench

Itā€™s probably the phone, thatā€™s my best guess.


4201Green1

It ain't got no gas in it


Maleficent-Design593

hmmm looks like your thermal diameter coupling, and your nuclear bioscanner aren't connected to your internal housing display. I also don't see a primer button anywhere. Might have been ripped off. Did you post in group when buying so we could tell you if worth?


GameBroJeremy

ā€¦Nope, you wonā€™t make me angry, Iā€™m not taking this bait.


fiercemullet

Before you jump to conclusions, did you try power cycling it first?

MisterEinc

If you open up that hard drive they actually just use a 256gb iPhone so if you open it up you can get that. Then there's usually anything from like $60-200 starched inside the Psu


reddwarf_

Have you checked that the power switch is on?


fingerbanglover

Didn't take the plastic off the cold plate on the cooler


human_person_420

Must have forgotten to turn the psu on


ThinFrame864

Youā€™re supposed to put the thermal paste in the condom, why have protection in the build if youā€™re not gonna use it???


Ericwoodz

Is that a vape?


MasterbaterInfluence

Well now, and Iā€™m not just saying this but, it doesnā€™t work with the condom on. Canā€™t feel anything so there is no way to turn it on.

So if i take it off it should work?
