Hey guys.
I was taking my standard heatsink off my Asus A8V motherboard, and the CPU came off attached to the Heatsink. 2 things. In the future, is their a way to stop this from happening?
Also, I bent a pin or 2 in the process. I managed to bend them back, and when I put it back in, the PC worked, but then on the next boot, it didnt and I had to wait a while for it to work again.
It seems to be working pretty solidly now, but is it possible that I might have problems in the future because of this bent pin?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
