Well with my computer, i turn it on and it goes on and turns off then turns on. Is this what your is doing?

I found that if i leave it for like 1 Min then push the reset button it works fine.... i call it my security ;D

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.
