Thank you, thank you for your help. Your suggestions did the trick. I cleaned off cpu, heatsink and applied new paste. Cleared CMOS as suggested. Basic system out of case started with shorting power switch connector. I put everything in case with much excitement.

I have come up with another problem. Nothing happened when I pushed the power switch on the case. I changed the orientation of the power switch connector and tried again. Nothing.

I removed the power switch connector, shorted with my screw driver and behold I was able to get to the BIOS.

What do I do now? I have an Inwin case.
