I have recently transferred my parts from one case to another. In the process I took the processor off. And some thermal paste got onto the CPU holder.(into the little holes). I know this is dumb, but it was my first time. When I connect everything to the new case and turn it on it starts to work, but nothing appears on the monitor. Then it turns off in 30 seconds. NOTE: when I turn it on, the thing that sits on the processor(I forget what it is called) makes a weird noise. Any help would be great.
CPU broke or motherboard??

You really need to get that CPU socket clean. If you aren't comfortable doing it yourself I'd suggest speaking to a professional in your area ASAP. And do you mean the CPU fan makes a weird noise on boot? What sort of weird noise?
