Hi there,

In my second PC I removed the Cooler off the CPU & renewed the paste without disturbing any other parts in my big box with plenty of room.

When I pressed the box SW to boot up, nothing happened except that the CPU, PSU & a case fan run for a second then stopped.

This happens each time even if I keep the SW pressed.

I reseated again the CPU chip, the two Ram sticks, the HD cables & every other cable in the box. Still the same.

Can anybody give me any ideas, besides ofcource chucking the lot in the bin !.

Ashamed to say I bent one of the CP chip pins, never before but there is always a 1st time.

And to think that I am extra carefull to see & hear the chip fall freely in the holes.

Anyway managed to straighten it & fires up OK now, & is 5c cooler now with the new paste

Thanx for the help anyway.
