I am replacing my old motherboard and cpu with a new one. This is probably the 20th system I've built or so, and I'm in a real pickle. I purchased a used processor (e6300).
I am using all new components or previously working components from my previous setup, except for the processor and fan. Basically, the CPU fan won't spin up. I have the stock heatsink/fan from the retail package, and a Zalman 7700. Both of them "flicker" (ie move a little bit) when the switch is flipped but will not spin. Is it possible that this could be the CPU is fried, or is this a motherboard issue? Thanks for the help!
