Stupid, I am!
----------------------------------------I started the build on the 2 card machine. I went to snap in the I/O shield into the case and promptly slit my index finger open on it from the second knuckle to the tip. The top edge is not knurled like it should be and is sharp as a scalpel. And a fine job I did too. Blood all over the MoBo, heat sink, empty PCIe slots, table and carpet. Everywhere!! By the time I got the bleeding stopped and the finger bandaged the blood had dried on the MoBo. If anyone is interested. Since Newegg does not sell “Motherboard Blood Remover”, an entire box of foam q-tips and isopropanol works well albeit a quite tedious job with a bandaged finger. I usually name machines DM1 through DMx. If this one works, I’m going to name it “Bloody Mary”! Stupid and careless, I am! Another reason I hate hardware. Do you make house calls Dr Mike? ![]() I’m going to bed now. Tomorrow is another opportunity for me to be STUPID and careless!!! ![]() ![]() |

I do this sort of thing with frightening regularity. While the frequency has decreased in recent years, the healing time has increased to match. So don't feel too bad..or at least find solace in the fact that you have many fumble fingered companions. ![]() |

It just ticks me off when something like this happens just because I was not paying attention to what I was doing. But I guess the real reason is because now I can't complete the build with this big fat bandaged finger. ![]() Anybody have a left-handed mouse? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I then took it out on the patio, turned on my hose and sprayed all the blood off of it. Then I let it sit in the sun all day. (after removing the little battery) ![]() That night, I installed it back in the case, put all of the stuff back on it, turned it on and no smoke. In fact, I am still using that motherboard - it's my main computer. When I dam(n) near cut my finger off, I was more worried about my brand new motherboard than my finger! LOL I think age changes one's priorites! ![]()
