As the title implies. Took it out yest to do some testing on llwyd equiptment and re-house it in my new case, and one of the things on the to-do list was re-seat my NB watter block.
We'll in the process of that i managed to get thermal paste around the resistors on the chip. S*** i think, and try to clean it off. But alphacools thermal paste is a
to get off at the best of times. So i did the best i could and crossed my fingers.
Only to find after my 2 hours of leaktesting that the **** wouldn't boot. Its not even posting and is giving no warning beeps atall suggesting anythign else.
Atm the thing is out the case and all back on air cooling.
Things ive tried:
Once stick of ram, all slots.
No ram any slots
Cleaning the NB with acetone, made it a little cleaner but still not how it looked originaly.
Reseting the CMOS
The fragtek method of reseting the CMOS
Im sure its the motherboard due to the fact its not posting/beeping at me atall. It just sits there looking at me.
Anyone got any ideas of anything else to try before i throw it out the window and buy another?
