Computer crashes; I kill my motherboard?

Motherboard: MSI 7778 Jasmine, supports the APU AMD series officially the Trinity APUs.
Computer: HP Pavilion P6 - http:// 2327c

I was upgrading my APU of the A8-5500 (originally from the A6 - 5400 k) to the A8-6500. (Yes, I know that the Richland series is not OFFICIALLY taken in charge, naked with me).

Everything was on, but I heard the CPU fan grind a little, so I opened to tighten a screw loose. He had a screw loose and I shook it, BUT for some reason, I went to remove the fan and remove the old thermal paste off the coast of the APU and the heat sink & fan. I have been using a Solution of isopropyl 50% 50% water.

When apply the thermal paste and being the fool that I am, the APU was not mounted in the motherboard, but I had him sitting on the side panel that came out my case; Thus, while lifting the APU out of the side panel to the motherboard, my fingers in contact with the dough baths (thermal DYNEX silver paste http://... I picked it up at a local Best Buy) and some of them somehow got on the bottom of the APU. I went to climb the APU and the heat sink & fan. I plugged in the computer.

Start the computer, but it froze after the HP Logo. I could hear the computer do a click on... Click on... CLICCCCK, click on... Click on... CLICCCCK sound. I opened the computer once again, I found some of the thermal paste on the motherboard itself around the Assembly of the CPU, so I who cleaned with the solution 50-50. I also removed the APU and, with a needle soaked in the solution, I started to clear the pins; I got most of it.

Same thing happened when I turned on the computer. The computer froze after the HP Logo and I got the click on... Click on... CLICCCK... Once again, open the computer and pulled the A8-6500 and I inserted the A8-5500. SAME THING. I came from research:

1A obtained 90% isopropyl alcohol and re-cleaned everything.
2 bought Arctic MX-2.
3 cleared the CMOS memory on the motherboard.
4 possible purchase of a new card of mother Socket FM2: http://

I think that both the A8-5500 and 6500 got short-out, and maybe my motherboard has been damaged.

Any thoughts?

If you have done this, you must have facepalmed along the journey.

Mclightning88, welcome to the forum.

Get money composed based on the socket can certainly be a fatal error.  However, you can get a couple of smaller brushes that you can buy at a hobby shop.  Use them to try to remove him remains composed of alcohol intake.  Mark cotton pads q - Tip allows to absorb alcohol taking.  You must be extremely careful.  At this point, you have not much to very loose and everything to gain.

Fortunately, I've never had to use this method, but I heard that this can work.

The best of luck!

  • the computer crashes when video Skype calling

    OK, so during a video call, the other night, my laptop Averatec running Windows XP home overheated and shut down, I restarted, since then when I go to the video conference on Skype, my computer crashes, restarts and gives me several different answers, for example a blue error screen, malware, software spies ect in conflict.

    Since this place has started, I took the following steps and not to find another solution.

    • check disk
    • updated Sytem
    • Update driver
    • Update directX
    • Uninstall / reinstall Skype
    • installation of mcafee
    • Disk Cleanup
    • removal of unwanted emissions

    I can't understand what other solution to use

    Other that the timelysupportof the right answer, you could do things * methodically * and in the following order:

    1. Uninstall Skype.
    2. Update your web maison.* of manufacturers motherboard chipset driver
    3. Update your audio device driver, since manufacturers web maison.*
    4. Update your video device since the manufacturers driver web maison.*
    5. Update your network from the Web pages of manufacturer (s) device driver. *
    6. Reboot and install CCleaner.  Run and cleaning of loose files it finds.
    7. Download and install MalwareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware (FREE for BOTH) and run scans of complete system with each of them (one at a time) and remove all found each of them.
    8. Open the registry and find the Skype entries and remove them.  Everything you find.  HKLM and HKCU areas in particular.
    9. Reboot again.
    10. Run a CHKDSK on all readers
    11. Perform a defrag on all readers
    12. Reboot again.
    13. Visit http://winodwsupdate.microsoft.com/ and install all the updates that are not optional (optional and hardware software optional can be ignored) and who do not update anything you don't want to update (such as Internet Explorer, etc.)
    14. Restart and repeat 13-14 until you have updated not more not optional, you need to install.  Reboot once more for good measure.
    15. Download the latest version of Skype and install it. Reboot before running it.

    * If possible, go the real manufacturer - not the whole machine - but the device.  For example, if you have an Intel chipset based motherboard, download the drivers for it to Intel.  If you have a video device nVidia, download the drivers for it from nVidia.  If you have a Broadcom network device, download the drivers for it from Broadcom.  If you have a RealTek audio device, download the drivers for it from RealTek.  And so on...

    If, after doing all this in this order, it still does not - it is probably a hardware problem or a Skype number.  However, you might try ONE last thing.  SFC/scannow.  You will need your Windows XP CD-ROM.

    After that - you are really left with material/Skype or something messed up so you might resign yourself to try a full installation of fresh erase (although I wouldn't do if I couldn't have my disk image and send it to where it was before I tried.)

  • Every time I play a video game on my computer crashes. How to solve this problem or better to diagnose the problem?

    Every time I play a video game on my computer crashes. How to solve this problem or better to diagnose the problem? Sometimes when I play a video game in the steam.

    Windows 7

    64 bit
    HP e9300z
    Processor: AMD Athlon II processor 4 620 X 2.60 Ghz
    RAM: 4 GB
    Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GT 220
    It does not give me an error message simply stops and restarts auto.
    When it reboots it just tells me that Windows has stopped unexpectedly.

    First - check that you have the latest drivers for your motherboard chipset, your video device, your audio device and your network devices.  The first place to look for those who are on the Web site for your computer model & specific brand:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=4148392&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&lang=en&cc=us

    When you select your operating system (Windows 7 64-bit) I see that HP ony supplies those who they provided with the system originally.  It's practically worthless.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063&LC=en&cc=us&DLC=en&sw_lang=&product=4148392#n177

    Yes, where to from here?  I would say that you should at least install the latest video card driver - as more modern games can use those strongly...

    http://www.nvidia.com/object/Win7-WinVista-64bit-301.42-WHQL-driver.html

    Download and install it.  If possible, you still have the original driver installed - this is more recent than most 30 months.

    It's an AMD 785 G chipset card mother configuration, if their site is correct.  Looks like you can download and install latest drivers from AMD for this also:

    http://support.AMD.com/us/gpudownload/Windows/pages/raid_windows.aspx

    I'd say it's a good start.

    What else?  It could very well be a heat problem.  Since it is a desktop - I suggest she get everything, buy some canned air for cleaning electronices and opening of this case and blow off any dust.  It can be quite the accumulation.  After blowing out, make sure that all the components that look like they 'plug' firmly/well connected.  Carefully.  Then, put the cover on and connect.

    Make sure that there is enough air around the case - put a fan in front of him if you have to.

  • The computer crashes during Gaming (BSOD) and Windows performance index

    Windows 7, 64-bit

    OK, so I've had this problem for weeks. Initially, I thought the graphics card was defective. When I ran the Windows experience index, it would break on the part where he is to note the graphics card. So what I did I sent to the manufacturer and got a new, but the computer STILL crashes. Maybe the motherboard is damaged - I don't know.

    Another measure taken was to use the command prompt and the "sfc/scannow". It did not work.

    I have almost all the necessary drivers. The only one, I can not install is the Display Driver for the graphics card, for some reason any.
    The graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 TI and the motherboard is an ASUS P9X79. They are compatible with each other.

    Sincerely,

    OK, so I thought I should touch basis with you guys, because although no one answered for a while.

    The problem is certainly a problem of overheating.

    I figured out how to fix the problem - all I had to do was increase the GPU fan speed.of. Because of this, I was able to install the GPU driver successfully and play video games. (Use the GPU Tweak to increase the fan speed)
    I hope that whoever reads this found useful.

    Hello, I recently built a computer and installed all the software, drivers and updates of windows that I needed. Go and try to play games, I can play for a little bit. Then my computer crashes or I get BSOD with the error Stop: 0x000000F4. Generally before that happens, Skype will plant give me a message that says "error disk i/o" If that helps. How can I fix this problem so that this error does not happen again? It happened several times. I tried to reinstall the CMOS battery on the motherboard. I have the latest firmware of my SSD and drivers for my card mother and graphics card. My specs are:

    Hello

    To help you, we will need files DMP to analyze what exactly happened at the time of the accident, etc.

    If you don't know where the DMP files, here's how to get to them:
    1. go to the Windows\Minidump folder.
    2 copy all the DMP files in the Minidump folder on your desktop and zip then those files.
    3 download the zip containing the files DMP to Skydrive or a Web hosting of your choice and paste in your answer.

    If you plan to use Skydrive, but do not know how to download it, please see the following:
    http://www.WikiHow.com/use-SkyDrive

    Please note that all "cleaner" such as TuneUp Utilities, CCleaner, etc., default will remove files DMP when using because of their place too.

    If your computer doesn't generate DMP files, follow these steps:

    1. start > type systemroot which should show the Windows folder, click it. Once inside this folder, make sure there is a Minidump folder created. If not, CTRL-SHIFT-N to create a new folder and name it Minidump.

    2. Windows key + key Pause. This should appear in the system. Click Advanced on the left system settings > advanced > performance > settings > advanced > make sure there is a check mark for "manage automatically the size of pagefile for all readers."

    3. Windows key + key Pause. This should appear in the system. Click Advanced on the left system settings > advanced > startup and Recovery > settings > failure > ensure there is a check mark next to "Write an event to the system log" > make sure that "automatically reboot" is unchecked.

    Ensure that the partial memory image is turned on and make sure the path is % SystemRoot%\Minidump.

    4. check that the viewers is ENABLED:

    Start > Search > type services.msc > on the name tab, search for Windows Error Reporting Service > if the service status is not started, then right-click and select start. Also to ensure that, under Startup Type set to automatic rather than manual. You can do this by right click, select properties and under general selection on 'Automatic' startup type and then click on apply.

    If you can not get into normal mode to do this, please do so via Safe Mode.

    Kind regards

    My computer crashed (blue screen) and when it restarted a box came asking me to update Firefox. I clicked on OK (thought he was just trying to restore the session) and I have now lost all my favorites, passwords registered etc. There is no 'old Firefox data' folder anywhere on my system - help! is there a way I can get it all back without doing a system restore? I am running Windows 7.

    Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

    If not and the other favorites, please see.

  • My computer crashed and I had to reinstall firefox.but I had already bought the full version of helper download, that I still have to buy it?

    I did have to pay for firefox because firefox is free. But I buy the full version of downloadhelper path long before my computer crashed. Download helper has a record of my IP address and my name and email, and I remember seeing a key for my purchase when I used to look in the window options. Then they will make me pay for a legitimate downloadhelper version if they have officially that I already bought? That's what I want to know, because I don't have to buy it again.

    Re-installing Firefox does not necessarily mean that you will have to re - install Download Helper.

    Best is to ask the support of Download Helper on their program.
