Thanks for the reply. As stated above, my hope is to pull it out again and reseat it. I REALLY hope it is OK.
My power supply is a ANTEC TRUEBLUE 480watt , so it should be OK.
Another question, if my CPU is bye-bye, could I put in a Prescott? My current setup is:
MB P4 INTEL 875P D875PBZLK FMB1.5 R
CPU P4/3.2CGHz 800M 478P/512K HT
Thanks,
