I have a friend who gave his computer to his daughter and moved it into her room. He plugged everything in and nothing would appear on the monitor. After trying a couple of things, he gave it to me to look at. I eventually pulled the CPU fan to reseat the CPU and noticed that it looked "off". Pulled the CPU and that's when I saw the bent pin. Carefully straightened the pin, reinstalled it and put new thermal paste. The computer booted no problem.
Would moving a computer from one room to another cause the CPU to partially come out? It's a stock cooler so it's not like there was a lot of weight.
The desktop is an Asus M11BB (AMD FM2 processor).
