The following system in my sig, post then shutdowns. I recently tried taking old HDD from a previous build and putting them in there. It started, then just shutdown so I figured I would take them out.

I re-arranged the Red serial cables that connect to the drive, I don't know if that has anything to do with it. They're SATA drives.

I removed the added HDD and left my single one in that worked previously, but it seems this one will not go past POST as well. I get to a Windows screen saying some error and hit enter to boot, but my computer just turns off after a couple of seconds.

I don't know what to do!


It's my

Q6600 in my sig. :(
 
I felt the Heatsink, was wobbly.. I just hope I knocked it loose.

:(
 
OMG Bios said my Quad was at 80*C I'm letting it cool off, and remounting the heatsink and artic silver later on.


:(

I hope nothing is damaged.
