    Hi guys, i made a homemade probe and reader yesterday for my xbox 360 for flashing, out of an npn transistor 1k resistor 10k resistor ect..

    and basically my +5v from molex accidently touched the XBOX CHASSIS.(xbox was grounded with my pc) this made a spark and my PC SHUT OFF. the xbox is perfectly fine. and now when i turn my pc on i hear the XP sounds and stuff but there is nothing on the monitor. this is onboard graphics, not a graphics card.

    Any help will be appreciated!
