Scary PC crash...

[Nik_SpeakerToCats]

So I'm looking over books discounted on Amazon when PC (W_10) announces there's a problem, re-boots.

Prompt demands designated boot media.

Yes, proverbial nape-hair up-stand event, cold chills etc etc etc.

Tried manual re-boot, no improvement. Front case switch is ignored.

This is the point where you sit back from PC, mumble industrial-strength epithets, draw slow, wary breath...

Then, tuck keyboard aside, haul 'Tower' from under desk, feel around case snake-pit to the Kilowatt Corsair PSU and switch it off.

After long enough to calm nerves, switch on.

PC is well trained: It does not auto-start thus. ( I lost previous Tower to power-glitched restart killing C: )

Press front case switch.

Meep ! Gigabyte board logo comes up. Slowly, very slowly, despite the 'Road Runner' cry, W_10 loads in usual way.

Eventually, Chrome browser reports, "Incorrectly closed windows: Restore ??"

It did, too...

Brrr !!!
