Technical Issues (Again)

Helllllo Rivans.

I treat my electronics very well. Very carefully. I'm still using the same iPod Classic from like 15 years ago.

So why does it feel like my job-essential PC always has some issues?

Sorry. Just wanted to get that off my chest.
The other day my PC force-rebooted 3 times in a row before I got it to behave. Then last night it just completely died. Midnight. No reaction from anything I did.
I spent today fiddling to try and find the problem, and I got it back up...but it keeps dropping again. Currently the best bet is some kind of RAM issue; I'm testing my RAM and can replace it if it's faulty. A bigger problem is if it's the motherboard that the RAM plugs into...
That gets expensive QUICK.

I apologise that I don't always think to keep you guys updated on technical issues and the like. I tend to Tweet first, sort the rest later. If you can, I suggest following me on Twitter (https://twitter.com/Gar1onriva).

The situation is that I currently have no videos made except for a two-part Legends of Runeterra campaign on the Gar1onTabletop channel. I also cannot record anything more as I'm on half my RAM (like right now) and/or awaiting another sudden shutdown.
I don't know how long this will take to fix. If it's more than a couple of days and we still don't know for sure what the problem is, I may have to prop it up as best I can and try to record.


I'll try my best to keep you informed as things develop.

I appreciate your understanding.

Apologies if this post is a bit disjointed and rambling... I'm rather stressed out and can't say I'm handling this situation brilliantly.

Edit (22/01/23): I thought I'd fixed it, as it went almost 2 days without a crash... Then crashed during a recording. I'm gonna take a close look at the power supply. The hour of Potionomics I was recording is corrupted.


Edit (24/01/23): Today it took about an hour to actually turn it on at all. I've been trying to slowly rule things out, but it's not working. I'm too hesitant and it's wasting time. I'm gonna replace the power supply and see if it still crashes. I'll update again when I've got the new one.
Sorry this is taking so long. I'll be doing an Arknights video to keep things ticking over, but PokeSins is my top priority at the moment.


Edit (26/01/23): I just sat down after replacing my power supply and all associated cables. HOPEFULLY that has fixed the issue. I'll stress test it tonight. Not sure how. Crashes are so random, either first thing or when I'm almost done with a long recording...
I will update you on how it goes.


Edit (09/02/23): As it has been a couple of weeks since I installed the new power supply and I've had no crashes...it seems that fixed it. Apologies for the issues lately. This crash issue sort of added to an ongoing very stressed mindset I've got at the moment, and I've really struggled to do...basically anything of worth.
That said, most of the next Hoenn PokeSins is scripted and should be released within a few days. The final episode of Season 3 will hopefully be out within a week after that. Then we'll try and settle back into the weekly episodes again.

Sorry to hear you're having more technical issues but hopefully you can figure out the issue without it becoming too expensive.
