Video card exploded due to a short in an svideo cable.
All i heard was the sound of electrity, sparks coming out of my case, and smoking pouring out the vents. Worst nightmare ever. Atleast it didnt ruin everything.

I never filled out the information withis the 30 days i baught it so i assume not. I dont think that it would be covered, because technically it was my bad should have checked the cable first.

If you have the receipt or invoice, you should be good. Only the dickish companies require that you register the product when you get it, to honor the warranty.

You don't admit that to them. That's like telling the cops that you've got weed under the seat when you're only getting a ticket for speeding.
