Intel D925XCV Motherboard Catches on Fire - Firewire Ports

Post by Apoptosis »

This is what happens when you take a couple year old motherboard when something doesn't go right on the board. A little bit of smoke and a small flame will do it... the board works fine other than the lack of Firewire support now.

I'm actually impressed that the D925XCV still works other than the Firewire ports.

Its a testiment to the designers if it still works while its wounded!
