Well, I used that dow corning conforming compound around my cpu socket. When it cured, I noticed that the socket lever was glued into place, as the socket 478 moves when you lock it down. I figured that this was a no issue as Ive pulled out cpu's out of the socket when removing hs/f's. Well, I finally put the tec together and tested it. Frost baby, so I was pretty psyched. I assemble the whole thing, power it up, and..........nothing. The computer powers up, the fans/lights/cdroms and such activate and everything, but no video action. I changed cards to no avail. Heres the weird thing, I took off the tec, removed the cpu and the comp still powered up. I removed the ram and the damn thing still powered up. I shorted the bios to get rid of any crazy settings but still no go. Anybody ever seen anything like this? Its an abit Ic7-max3. NO BEEPS???
