so with the themal past would i matter if i had 2 kinds on it, like i got most of the other kind off it and stuff

Nah it wont affect your computer having two different types of thermal paste on it, I have two on mine and it runs just fine. When you say you 'got the thermal stuff on it' what do you mean? On the fan or the processor? How bad? Where exactly on it?

on tope of the cpu and at the base of the heatsink fan, i've built this computer myself so yeh i ain't really a newbi

If the thermal paste is on top of the CPU and on the bottom of the heatsync then you got it on the right places, so what's the worrying about? :S If they're the only two places that you got the thermal paste on then the paste isnt the problem. QFE on apj101, does the fan spin? Is the heatsync fan spinning around fine? Do you see anything on the screen when you first switch it on like the bios version etc? Have you checked the graphics card is in place properly? Is the monitor plugged into the card socket properly? Have you bent any of the pins in the monitor connector?

You need to answer all questions for us to help
