Wierd Happenings...
<div class="IPBDescription">is mr pink's computer possesed?</div> Last night, I was up until about 2:00 AM playing computer games. I go to bed, and I hear this wierd rumpling sound coming from the computer room (the computer room is across the hall from my bedroom). At first I don't think much of it, it's probably the heater or something of that sort. After about 5 minutes, the sound starts getting louder and creepier. Picture what it would sound like if you were torturing a crow. At this point, I am scared sh!tless. This goes on for about half an hour, but thats when things start getting really wierd.
Now, I am going crazy trying to come up with any explanation as to what is causing the sound, and a wierd thought comes into my mind: I remembered when I was really little and my mom or sister said they new someone who was really into quiji boards, but stopped playing them because they claimed that this person had "been visitted by the devil". It is just one of those wierd memories you have from childhood. I think to myself "I don't want anything to do with the devil", and at this very moment, after a half hour, the sound stops. After this, I'm not sure if I was imagining it or not but I may have started the sound kind of start up again but never loud and I'm not even sure if it was really there.
The next morning, I'm sitting there eating breakfast alone, and I remember the events of last night. The garage door, which is on a hinge swings open making a creeking noise that further scares the krap out of me (there was also no one in the garage).
This isn't the first wierd things my computer has done either. I have seen it crash exactly at midnight, totally randomly, even when I had the clock set to other times. Once, the speakers started playing a wierd clanging sound, very similar to what it sounds like if you have a huge battle going on in warcraft 3. It's begun playing heavy rock music before for no reason at all.

Here's how to fix it:
1) Take out CPU.
2) Trade it to blind kid.
3) Buy new CPU.
Heh, no. I'm kidding. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> I couldn't resist. It may be a hardware problem, I'd have a professional take a look.
/me runs.
Or...
Call the Ghostbusters <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
btw mr pink i think everything is ok, but if you see a posessed evil scary girls face pop up and screams really loud on your desktop out of nowhere where your talknig on aim something, then i sugest you take a bat and beat the computer then take some holy water and pour it all over the bashed thing
and allyourhive your sig is hilarious
I read somewhere that it's possible for sound cards to pick up transmissions from radio stations. This isn't supposed to happen, of course, but it can if the card isn't properly shielded against interference.
Yeah good idea. That way I can watch Satan as he uses my computer to cyber's with a 13 year old girl who is really a 45 year old man while ejaculating on my keyboard. no thx plz there are some things in this world I'd rather not see.
Tonight, I plan to shut down my computer and turn off the surge protector, see if I still see wierd things...
MrPink, get McAfee PriestWall +
Is that weird?
I have an extremely active imagination, so when people describe stuff, i see it in full detail. Didn't help much when Mr. Pink mentioned Satan cybering on his comp... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
It does the same thing with me. I turn the computer off, and it turns itself back on within a few minutes. It's not a set time period either. Totally random start. Don't know why, doesn't matter to me really.
But to MrPink though, your problems do indeed seem supernatural.
I offer two solutions:
1) Go to a church
2) Find Holy Water
3) Dip finger in Holy Water
4) If steam/smoke comes out, congratulations: you're Al Pachino. Send me autograph.
or:
1) Pack bags
2) Get the hell out, because you're living in an area where rodents should have sex and that's about it.

So the red monitor and chanting of "Kneel before your master" is due to the power supply? Weah, i was really worried.
Slightly offtopic, but my guitar used to sometimes pick up Spanish or Portuguese radio, depending on where I stood in the room, which was odd...thrashing away quite happily, move 2 feet to left, random distorted Spanish gibberings..
I imagine it was the extension cable acting as an aerial, either that or I owned a haunted Ibanez... <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->
I love my computer. it would never hurt me
I do it because I care, I hope you missed your keyboard, btw.
It's called a trojan, you know, one of those nasty viruses that allow hackers to gain control of your computer?. I would bet over half of these "computer possession" stories are the result of some kind of trojan or virus.
Also, it is possible for some computers to turn themselves on by "themslves". If the power switch is suitibly "poor" and the humidity conditions are right, something like a radio signal or some freak electromagnetic buildup could close the power switch for a second - effectively turning it on.
Also, with the right weather conditions, some sound devices can pick up radio signals - if you live near any powerlines or something like that this might explain it. There is a lot of freaky stuff that can happen as a result of electromagneticy thingies - including what you are experiencing.
However, if you live in an area devoid of powerlines, or any kind of transmitter thingies, it may be time to get worried. In which case, use an AOL trial cd to ward off any evil spirits. This should normally scare off any lesser demons/spirits, but may accidentally summon greater demons/spirits. In which case, threaten to send them aol trial cds, and tell them of it's completely free 180 hour trial, with no obligation to buy!
Failing that, video clips of Barney (the purple...thing) should scare off anything. Use with extreme caution though.
