I attempted a eon upgrade . it would not post . went back to the 6600 still no go . ?I took a magnafying glass straightening a few pins . it finally started passing ethernet and when I checked [ I changed the non primary to a Tesla 2050 ] the specs on milkyway say the primary card not seen and the secondary tesla 2050m . was there . any advice ??

found several cpu bent pins - the AMDs will not work but the non - video output nvidia is running and a non-powered old amd will output video .

If the pins are still bent try using a mechanical pencil with the lead withdrawn, the hole the lead comes out is a good fit for the pins on a cpu. Be gentle though if the wrong one breaks you are SOL!!
