Sounds like he broke the heatsnk for his CPU.......if the connector is only broke he could theretically get a new heatsink, but if was glues on he will either have to get a whole new cpu/heatsink set up or try to gently remove the glue and install a new heatsink; probably best to let a pro handle the job though.  Sorry to hear that though Will, hope you find a way to make it back round these parts soon.  TTYL pal.

Hi Buck no there wasent any Glue around that Area..so thats 1 good thing. :/

Well i Ranted good yesterday. Well ive talked to 2 peeps about fixing it one guy wants $80.00 bucks an Hour to Fix, or this Lady will do it maybe cheaper i have to call her back,she has call me, i mean when she gets caught up she said?

Well whats on that area i broke is a white plastic peice that had holes in on there still thats covering the HS there. So i, just hoping i didnt break in Half any the two Chips on the Mobo under neath all that. They will find out. If its going to cost me over $200.00 bucks to get it fixed im just thinking getting a E`machine at Walmart,or this other Pentium Based HP 2.5 Mgz,this guy has for 150.00 Bucks but it doesent have an AGP slot on it so my Video card wont work with it.

I have do what i have to do, I learned my Lesson. On this..Too Much..
Thx for your Replys so far Guys.. Im not Liking Driving all the way up the Big Hills to go the College to use there Pc. Its Kinda Boring.
Also i need find a Cheaper ISP if i ever get back online in the future.
maybe Att: yahoo Isp.
Well have a good day buck. I never thought you ever seen, a Heat Sink Buck? :D ;)
(joking ok)

I haven't really seen too many of them, though I know what they are.  I have tried to replace the CPU one mine once, but it is a slot 1 kind, mounted to a card set into a slot on my mobo, so it is different.

Hi Blazn, I havent seen you post in a Long while ;} Well i had to but another pc,but all i need to do now is just get another Mobo for that DeLL Thing. I dont think im going to get another Dual Core Mobo maybe just a 2.5 Gig Mhz,or somthing some day. I think it's kinda easy to intsall that,with the set up i have on there. Well what i have now on the other Pc is umm, ah 2.2 Gig-Hrz with my Old Ram of 1,512 Ram whats so Strange is now this Cheaper Pc i have seems just as Fast at my Dual Core was,at the less expense of Bills maybe? Electric also isent as Loud. Has same size HD on it 160=145 Gig.
Thing is i had to pay out again,im just waiting for my new server hook up then, i can be bored again with all you guys LoL ;) Naw..Hoping to see more Cars Come out maybe. and Tracks?
Thx for your Regaurds Rafel. ;} and others. Ive Learned a Hard Lesson threw all this, (never try to clean out are pc's) heha Rite :rolleyes: ;)
