   Hi everyone,

I am new to this board.  Have a very odd issue going on.  Bought my son his very first gaming machine.  And today I reseated the Intel CPU with a better thermal paste to help with cooling.  Anyway, after seating the CPU and plugging everything back in, after I turned of the computer it came on, no bios, then after 30 seconds or so it would restart on it's own.  It did this 3 times before I finally hard booted the pc off.  Now when I hit power there is no longer a pause before turning on.  Now it turns on right away and the PSC (post status checker) stays lit in the top left corner.  It doesn't boot to bios at all.  I have tried to clear the CMOS with the battery being left out for 5 mins.  And reseated the VGA, Memory, and even the CPU again.  I am not sure what could have happened.  And was wondering if anyone else has dealt with this?
