Jump to PostWhen you say you cleaned the CPU, what exactly does that mean? The removal and replacement of a CPU is a very delicate operation and can easily be done erroneously. If I was to guess, your problem is there.
Jump to PostIt will be difficult for anyone to give you a definitive answer but I think the CPU is where the trouble is. Three things could have happened, 1, you damaged the CPU, 2, you damaged the motherboard, or 3, you damaged both.
Jump to PostIf the pins are ben or broken you will have troubles for sure. The only way they wouldn't stick deep enough is if the pins are bent or the whole CPU isn't aligned properly. Either way, it's bad news.
Jump to PostWhat about the CPU's heat sink? If you removed it and didn't glue it back on with proper heat conducting glue, the CPU will overheat in a matter of seconds and shut down. Just a thought.
