Computer POSTs but only stays on for a few seconds then shuts off
Hello,
I feel I should mention that this build previously didn't POST, but I took a look at the processor and saw it had a few bent pins. I tried to straighten them out as best I could, refitted the processor (this took a little bit of persuasion).
Now my computer POSTS, gets past the splash screen then tells me it cant boot into an operating system (which is expected as I don't have one installed, this is a new build) then shuts off. When I restart it, it POSTs and stays on for a shorter time, then I restart it again and it stays on for an even shorter time.
Is this a problem with the processor? Is it a home fix? Do I need a new processor?
Thank you in advance for whatever advise you can offer.
