| 1160548 | 2010-12-11 01:12:00 | i hooked up my friends new pc last night and was running mint.This morning she calls me saying the pc was shutting down after a few seconds. I opened it up to check for fluff etc and found that little retainer thing on the cpu was loose,I then seen a tab on the plastic base plate had broken off.I rang PB tech and they said it would cost up to $100 to fix. Where do you guys go for those kind of parts? |

| 1160549 | 2010-12-11 01:28:00 | Is the retainer bit you're talking about on the mobo or the CPU?? If its on the CPU only, replace the CPU fan. If its on the mobo You could try ringing Tech Master Ltd (they've got something to do with ASUS) Hotline: 0800-278-788 & 0800-278-778. Service Hours: 09:00-17:00 (Monday- Friday). |

| 1160550 | 2010-12-11 01:40:00 | its the base plate which is already on the motherboard when you buy it,where cpu sits in.It has 2 tabs for that clip which holds everything down.Hope that makes sense. | sk69ersnz (13476) | ||

| 1160554 | 2010-12-11 03:06:00 | Can't you get a new baseplate under warranty? You said it was a new PC... | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1160555 | 2010-12-11 19:10:00 | Can't you get a new baseplate under warranty? You said it was a new PC... Nope. It's physical damage. Warranty doesn't cover that. Try Techmaster, they may help. 09-571 2418 enquiry@techcentral.co.nz |

| 1160556 | 2010-12-11 19:19:00 | We can't get hold of the guy who built it.Do you guys know the name of the part I'm talking about? the Dunedin techs don't have a clue what I'm talking about. It's the black plastic thing that the heatsink sits in. |
