Rig Doesnt Start

Sounds like your cpu is toast, your motherboard probably has a temperature over protect on it. I had that and my cpu was fried, the mobo would shut down after just a few seconds to prevent anything else in the system from going with it.

from what i understand, if a processor does not have a heatsink on it, the computer will auto shutdown in a few seconds. thats just what i heard, never tried it. id put that heatsink back on and pray the chip aint hurt.

LOL...if it boots up at all :blink:

So you said you took the mobo out of the case put it on cardboard ? It didn't work.

If you put it on metal that could be the proble. Most times when people redo their rigs and the computer won't boot it's because the mobo is grounding on something. I'd check to see if maybe you have an extra riser in one of the holes that it's not suppose to be in.

In terms of your power requirements, you will need something better then 350w. The case/computer that you have was not intended to be a gaming machine. Best bet would be to strip the iDeq components and move them to a new case with a better PSU.

You can keep the video card, seeing that it will last for a while. The rest of the stuff... maybe $200 tops?
