Outside is fine, I'd revert back to a known-working original setup and see if you still have issues. Also examine the CPU socket for any bent pins since that seems to be the main component that was changed.i'll try to fix this/find the problem on the weekend, but if nothing helps i might need to take it to a repair shop in the beginning of next week.. but i would be hoping i wouldn't have to take it there and could fix it myself.
btw, should i be trying with the new parts or old parts (i've been trying with both kinda mixed)? and should i try inside, and outside the case for this (haven't put it back in the case since i took it out..)
