| I'm gonna take the hole case, and all the components to best buy / geek squad tomorrow or this weekend, Its gotta be the heatsink for sure thou, because I didn't have it on the correct way, because I believe this heatsink was made for A AMD and not intel mobo, It did have 2 bags of brackets thou. My Mobo tray didn't have holes in it thou so I had to try anchoring it directly to the mobo.. bad idea. Thou the heatsink was sucking some heat, I think it still wasn't on correctly, not tight enough up against the CPU. I Believe the CPU, the mobo and video card is ok, sense the last time I booted it up it started ok, but still would shut off randomly. as for the cmos, yea it has a clear jumper. and it says how to do it in the book.
I also found this for anyones interest..
