tb582 Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Ive had my dh800 mobo since they first came out...and havent had an issue since. But today the silver spikie thing...(heatsink, FSB) whatever it is fell off...I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why my computer wasn't booting and then I saw it hanging their.... First what is it?Second it looks as if the top clip that holds the part down has fallen off. What are my option here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonestonne Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 quite honestly, its a piece of metal used as a loop that holds the clips in place.it's just soldered to the board, so if you had it, you could try soldering it back on (very carefully)...you could also use a different heatsink that just sticks on, or come up with some DIY attachment method.past that, there's nothing you can do without a warranty.
