About 6 or 7 months ago my old comp died, for some unknown reason **** wouldn't turn on. Since it was a 4 years old comp that underwent svereal repairs already I decided not to even bother trying to repair it yet again, so I saved some money and bought a new one.
The new one is currently undergoing repairs because it has a minor problem and I am willing to exploit the warranty as much as I can.
So I was lately using my dad's comp that's an old celeron.
It's been about 10 days since last time I was able to use decent computer, so about 1 hour ago, in pure boredom I thought "let's plug the old comp back in the hopless attempt to have it work" being well aware that it had not been touced since it broke. So I plug it and it starts, and now I'm actually using it to post this.
Not that I'm pissed by this, it's actually nice to have a decent backp comp, but my rational emisphere can't stop repeating "how the **** is this even remotely possible?"
Any idea?

Probably just overloaded from use. Could also be that your plug was ****ed up (or power supply), or that your fan wasn't working and it overheated.

Last time I tried to start it before puttig it in my comps graveyard it hadn't been touched for a week and it didn't work, why should it work after 7 months
