How is that even possible? How could applying too much material between the CPU heatspreader and the heatsink keep one from entering BIOS? Even if you spilt it all over your motherboard and socket, it shouldn't do a damn, as (at least most?) thermal pastes aren't conductive enough to cause any short-circuits or other harm.
- mnicole 14y agoI couldn't tell you, to be honest. It was originally an issue with the video card overheating, and I decided to clean and re-organize everything. The thermal was the only thing I wasn't 100% on, and when I reseated it with less paste, it worked again.
