Ok, with the help of you guys I have determined that my PSU is fine. I tested it in another computer a little bit weaker than mine. It got everything up and running fine. Next, I tried putting the PSU back in the computer with the possibly fried mobo. This time I took the vid card out and plugged the monitor cable into the onboard video. (I just wanna see the BIOS baby!) Still nothing, the feared "Black screen" of my monitor showing no response to the computer disheartens me. Next I tried putting in a weaker video card into the mobo. Still nothing. Now, if my mobo is fried, it won't utilize the video card and gimme a BIOS output right? Now, the cpu isn't in charge of putting out a video output, so if I take that out and still nothing gives me a BIOS screen then it is my mobo and I should look into purchasing a new one? I have a 2.66ghz cpu, 1gb ram, 2HDDs 100gigs total, DVD+-RW, 256mbRadeon9550 Video Card, 500watt PSU, ATX case, can anyone recommend a cheap (under $100) motherboard?
Answer
to be honest with you since i dont have the pc in my shop its gonna be hard to diagnose but im gonna go out on a limb here and say this.
if you have no screen at all and the computer beeps. then you COULD HAVE a bad monitor or cable or even a bad vid card. however it sould also just be a bad setup in the bios itself. id try to do like the other guy stated. if the computer will show you a bios then try to reset it all back to default.
if all you get is a black screen and no beeps and no lights on the drives at all then dude i hate to tell you this but its time to get a new mobo. that puppy is cooked.
if you get a short beep then long beeps then short again then its the memory most of the time.
a long beeeeeeeeep menas you have a cpu problem(either its cooked or not getting power)
however as i stated if you have no screen at all then more than likely you will need a new mobo.
also please note you may need to dump it all. the mobo the cpu and the memory.
sometimes a bad power supply(or one to small) can cause a computer to work but will slowly kill the thing. for instance if you have a 250 watt psu and runing 2 hdd 1 gig and 2.66 gig chip then its too little
however you stated you have a 500 this should be sufficient for oyur neeeds. id still have it checked out by a pro to see if it has any problems though. it could be a 500 and still be pushing only a limited amount or be getting to hot.
now about a new mobo. id check out tiger direct or global for a cheap one. plenty of stuff for the budget minded that still kick ass.
good luck dude.

I wanna give birth under water. Is it true that one feels not very much pain or no pain at all?

Answer
Most people find great comfort and repose with water. Perhaps because we begin our lives surrounded in liquid in the womb, this basic familiarity stays with us throughout our lives.
Human beings are comprised primarily of water, and many special characteristics we have link us to aquatic mammals, perhaps carrying the memory of a time when the human species had an âaquatic interlude.â A three-day old fetus is 97 percent water, and at eight months the fetus is 81 percent water. By the time a human has grown to adulthood, the adult body is still 50 to 70 percent water, depending on the amount of fatty tissue.
Human beingsâ natural alliance with water is best witnessed in human babies who can swim naturally and easily long before they learn to sit up or crawl. During their first year of life, babies will calmly and happily paddle underwater, gazing around with eyes wide open. When they need to breathe, they naturally paddle toward the surface of the water before taking a breath. Babies instinctively know not to breathe while their heads are still submerged underwater. They wait until they reach the surface of the water before breathing. It seems to be only later that humans lose these instincts and become more prone to drowning.
For thousands of years women have been using water to ease labour and facilitate birth. Wherever there has been even slightly warm water, there have been women bathing in it, using it ritually, and finding great comfort in it, especially in labour.
Soaking in a tub of water to ease labour sounds inviting to most women. If the water is where a woman wants to be and there are no complications, then in the water is where she will feel the most comfortable. When it is time to birth the baby, there is no reason to ask the mother to get out of the water.
When a woman in labour relaxes in a warm tub, free from gravityâs pull on her body, with sensory stimulation reduced, her body is less likely to secrete stress-related hormones. This allows her body to produce the pain inhibitors âendorphinsâ that complement labour. Noradrenaline and catecholamines, the hormones that are released during stress, actually raise the blood pressure and can inhibit or slow labour.
What is waterbirth?
The act of giving birth in water is so incredibly simple. A mother submerges herself in warm, body temperature water during her labour. If she feels like giving birth in that warm buoyant state, there is no need to ask her to leave the water.
The baby has grown in a fluid environment for the past 9 months. Babies adjust very well to being born in a birth pool. Waterbirth is miraculous.
How long is baby in the water after the birth?
Here in the US, practicioners usually bring the baby out of the water within the first ten seconds after birth. There is no physiological reason to leave the baby under the water for any length of time. There are several water birth videos that depict leaving the baby under the water for several moments after birth and the babies are just fine.
Physiologically, the placenta is supporting the baby with oxygen during this time though it can never be predicted when the placenta will begin to separate causing the flow of oxygen to baby to stop. The umbilical cord pulsating is not a guarantee that the baby is receiving enough oxygen. The safe approach is to remove the baby, without hurrying, and gently place him into his motherâs arms.
What is the temperature of the water?
Water should be monitored at a temperature that is comfortable for the mother, usually between 95-100 Fahrenheit (35C-37.7C). Water temperature should not exceed 101F (or 38C) as it could lead to an increase in the motherâs body temperature which could cause the babyâs heart rate to increase. It is a good idea to have plenty of water to drink and cold cloths for the motherâs face and neck. A cool facial mist from a spray bottle is a welcome relief for some mothers as well.
What prevents baby from breathing under water?
Waterbirth is simple. Within the simplicity of water labour and birth lies a complexity of questions, choices, opinions, research data, womenââ¬â¢s experience and practitioner observations.
Over the past five years as more hospitals within the United States examine waterbirth and create programs to support the use of water for labour and birth, newspaper reporters latch onto the sensationalism of this simple option and publish stories of successful waterbirths in local publications. Each reporter does their best to simplify waterbirth and at the same time answer the most common questions. Each story shows a happy beaming mother, a quiet peaceful baby and a proud father, who usually successfully set up a portable birth pool. The surprise headlines like, ââ¬Åwatery birthâ or ââ¬Åbabyââ¬â¢s birth goes swimminglyâ or ââ¬Åjunior makes a splashy entrance,â are countered with the simple stories of couples who have made this decision for themselves and are proud of it.
