US, where else would you find a person stupid enough to do this.
I have to say you are in a really shitty trouble. You single handedly voided teh warranty as first thing you did.
If I lived in US, I would help you by testing the cpu in a different mobo. but I live in EU....
Yeah its fine, except I cant get the mother fucking mobo out now. The one screw is sitting there, acting like its loose, but not coming out of the fucking hole, so the fucking motherboard is still stuck on the fucking case!!!

Don't worry. just unscrew all the other screws and then pull the mobo out there. the brass thing came off the case. that's why it seems like the screw isn't coming out.

my first error working inside a PC cost me $950..  I still don't know what I did...   

But the computer we built from that error..........You know the bars on the XP load screen that rotate around and around?  Mine do 1/2 a journey across the first blip and then I'm in

EDIT: hope everything works out well for you, Commie

Most hardwear is some what protected and should refuse to work if something aint right, Processors can take quite a pounding before they die, ram can aswell, graphics card shouldnt be aproblem as it never really started, power supply will be fine. The only thing i can really see that would be a problem is if the processor shorted from the thermal paste, but as far as i know that stuff dosnt conduct electricity, only heat(could be majorly wrong of course) any way, good luck.

Ive been told that Artic Silver 5 does conduct electricity, due to its high concentration in silver.

It is made to resist electricity as best it can, but it can still conduct electricity if it is on a good electrical connection to begin with, and if you use enough. I can almost guarantee the CPU is toasted, but we shall find out...

And CommieKiller...advice to not screw it up? Er, try reading instructions this time.

Alls working, just got one problem, I wanna change the resolution, there isnt a option on the monitor to change it, I have Windows Vista 64 bit. It kinda sucks at 800x600.

Right click desktop and go to nvidia control panel. Or right click and go to "personalize" and then "display settings" at the bottom.
