I was trying to replace the loud NB cooler on my old NF7 board and I think I may have physically damaged it when I was pulling off the old one. I accidentally slipped a blade under the corner of the NB chip after it sliced through the plastic push pin. It didn't go in too far, less than one-eighth of an inch, but I had a bad feeling that I had hit something else. So now, when I go to start the computer I get long beeps meaning the DRAM isn't seated properly. The memory is seated fine, and it wasn't beeping before, so I'm guessing the connection or the PCB has been damaged near the NB. Any ideas?
Not a huge deal as I can find another board, but I would like to see this one working again if possible.
