Hi, I have an AMD XP 1700 that uses an ECS mobo and that mobo doesn't work any more. So I switched my CPU to Biostar Pro. I assemble everything together and after bootup, one of the block to tighten the hs broke off so the hs fell off. After that, I re-attached the hs and from there on it automatically shut itself off after a few seconds but the power button is still on.

Did you reapply the thermal paste after it fell off.
Did you try reseating it?
Did the HS hit anything when it fell off?

make sure the HS makes good contact with the core.. if it does it might be problem with the mobo...

check where your cpu fan is plugged in.. Many motherbords will turn off if they do not see a RPM signal over the cpu fan plug as a safety measure.
