I found this, what looks to be a jumper, inside the case of a Compaq Presario S5300nx. I leave the computer opened majority of the time so this could be something that just fell in it.

Probably a left over from assembly. They used to use those sort of jumpers for hard drives - master/slave. If there's nothing odd going on, I'd forget it.

I just figured it out, it was from the heatsink, they uset hese pins to attach the cpu heatsinkt o a mobo heatsink.

If you can, put the jumper back, and if you can't, take the computer to a repair shop and have them do it for you.
