I upgraded the cooling in my system to a water cooling system. After i was done installing my loop, i turned my system on and the motherboard poast Dr Debug code 36. I have an Asrock z77 extreme9 with a 3770k. I researched this code and it looks like my cpu wont post at all. I tried resetting my cpu, only put on memory stick in. hit CMOS clear switch and nothing. same problem. Is it possible my cpu is dead or did i screw up my motherboard? Any new suggestions that i can try?
 
Take out all the ram and place one module back... see if it posts. Do this for all the ram modules to figure out if one is faulty(do not forget to test all the dimms aswell). If there's still no result re-seat the CPU.. and test all the ram modules again as before.
This is what i would do at first glance, but hell maby you did kill the mobo with a screwdriver... it all comes down to trial and error...

Good luck!

I think when i put the waterblock on, i might have over tighten.. I tried what you suggested after doing research. I will try it again for sure. If i can't get it fixed, i'm waiting for haswell.
