Ok I'll start by not going into the long story of how my comp got fried in first place (in short i got a ram chip dirty after taking it out ((i think)) and when i put it back in *POP* and the smell of smoke........) and say this i need help determining if my new assemblys mother board CPU socket (it's a BRAND NEW motherboard but i put the old proc in it) is fried or my processor (from the computer that was fried). Is there any reasonable explination why my assembly would not work with new everything except my power supply graphics card and processor (both from old assembly). Basicly answer me this, when i put the dirty ram chip in my old machine and it fried, what part(s) could have gotten fried?
Aside from all above comments, my new assembly comes on, but seconds after powering up the proc pops and it is hot w/ a lil smoke. I realize that either the cpu or cpu socket must be broken of course but could putting my possibly fried processor (assuming it is fried) into my new MB fry my new Mother Boards slot or any other part?
I know all this is worded confusingly and my apologies for any complications that are a result of my wording or grammar.
