[QUOTE="eyepea, post: 13398833, member: 200324"] thanks. tried re-seating cpu as ruwanjrc suggested. So heat-sink was re-installed. hopefully it is ok :D I have cleaned ram contacts with an eraser and can try same on the cpu as this is a socket 775 cpu. But never tried cleaning the socket pins before. :oo: A quick google shows me the way to go about it is a soft toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol. Is this the way to go about it ? Any ideas are welcome please Will try that and see :yes: [/QUOTE]
