A couple of Noobs here - my son and I taking on a project to build a gaming machine.
We got everything assembled but no video. From checking out the forums here one of things to check for was bent pins - which we appear to have on CPU socket.
Can anyone confirm based on the pictures that this indeed looks like a bent pin? Would this cause the motherboard from not firing up?
In addition to no video the heatsink fan does not start up either. There appears to be power to all of the other components (the fan, the disc drive, etc)
Thanks in advance!
