I was working on the video this afternoon and then I heard a loud snap and the PC shut itself off. It wouldn't turn itself back on.
After unplugging the power outlet from the wall and trying it back on, it did work.
But now I'm not sure if it's the outlet or if it's the PC's power supply proper since both can behave this way, and I'm pretty nervous about tempting fate and actually damaging something if I insist. The place where I live suffers constant power outages and despite my purchasing of a no break I've been advised not to use it, because I've been told it'd conflict with my rig and damage my supplier or my graphical card. Are people full of shit when they say this? I DON'T KNOW! I don't have the expertise!
I tried to have a technician over on this matter but didn't have much luck so far.
The video is definitely on its finishing stages - a couple more animations at most, then sound and editing.
I'm sorry it's taking this long and especially that this happened to delay progress even further. I wanted nothing else but to expedite progress and not hinder it.
Sorry about it. Please work with me as I try to sort this out.
