Welp, just heard back...guess I'm buying a new computer...sigh. For all my current projects this means final death, at least until I feel like trying to rework them. However it also means I'll be working on some that were further down the line. Symbiosis will still be coming as its getting the full ground up rework anyway. Memories of Death will also be coming.
Apparently it was the power thingy that caused the problem as it failed and resulted in a surge which basically toasted my poor baby. Most of what he told me went over my head, but basically its a brick.
Luckily not all is lost as I got the quarterly gst and carbon tax refund shit and Amazon cooperated with me. Ordered a cute little computer that is not so powerful but will be easily upgraded as time goes one. So my more intense games are still a ways off, but writing is back on the menu!!! Not a laptop though, so I guess I'll need to bust out my old tablet and keyboard if I want to do writing on the go.
Oh well.
Tldr
Laptop is a brick, lucked out and found new computer on sale.
Moral of the story? If your computer acts funny then suddenly fixes it self GET IT CHECKED
