My failure list from most to least would be this:
1. power supply / printer
2. optical drive / floppies (the disks, not the drives)
3. hard drive
4. monitor / mouse / fan
Never really had probems with anything else as far as I can remember. I had
a few 3dfx cards back in the day and never had the slightest bit of trouble
with any of them.
I used to go through a ton of power supplies until I finally stopped buying
the cheap ones. Printers kept giving me constant trouble, but the fairly
modern HP I have now seems to work ok (although the OEM software/driver is
complete and utter shit, but then OEM software usually is.)
My printer problems ended (mostly) when I finally spent the bux and got a laser
printer. The (mostly) bit is because neither Windows nor Ubuntu support an HP
2300 printer. Sigh.
