Hi,
I have a hardware problem! My PC was getting a bit noisy in the hot weather and it was the CPU fan causing the noise, so I replaced the stock heat sink and fan with a Corsair H60 water cooler. The installation was very simple and when I fired it all up, all the lights and fans came on, but nothing else is happening - nothing on screen - cannot even get to the BIOS.
Everything is seated correctly and I have not made any other changes. Searching for solutions, there is a suggestion that the PSU may not have enough power, but it's a 750w OCZ which replaced my old 450w so I don't think an extra 300w is being used by the CPU cooler!
The only other thing that happens is that the drives all sound like they are stuck in a loop - hard drives clicking, DVD spinning up (no disk) with light coming on and off.
Any ideas what on earth has happened?! Slight bummer really - just change one part and the whole thing stops working!
Cheers,
S
