Hi all, so I upgraded my HDD today from 250GB to 1TB WD Caviar Black. Started to install Windows 7 and I noticed that my desktop would turn off every 2 mins or so. Checked the CPU temperature and noticed it was at 93 C/ 199 F. Reinstalled the heatsink and it looks to be making more contact now as it wasnt when I opened it.
Put it all back together and now I do not get any video output on my monitor. No beeps, no shutdowns, no video. All fans are working, even on the GPU. Mobo light is on, everything was working fine before I installed the HDD. Swapped the video card with an older one I had and still no video. RAM is new, less than 2 months and it was working fine prior. Put my old HDD back in and tested that and still nothing. There is no onboard video either so I can only go through the GPU. The only thing I did was replace the HDD and correct the heatsink at the beginning.
Any help would be great.
Specs:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550
ASUS P5K/EPU
Radeon HD 4890 OC edition
8GB Corsair Dominator
WD 1TB Caviar Black
TX750W Corsair
