   Well i was freaking out cause I finally got the ct scanner board working and figured it'd be fine without a heatsink and it was until I plugged in the keyboard. Once I plugged in the keyboard and hit any button to search for a disk it froze up completely. Everything seemed fine but for some reason the rc2016a5 chip was burning hot...even hotter than the cpu.I don't know what that specific chip does but after that it just wouldnt show any image on the screen. Something still seems to be happening though as plugging in the card on its own causes the card to beep. I have no idea whats going on nevertheless. https://social.076.moe/url/948261

     @waffle upon further research, it appears to be the chipset, so I hope you didn't fry that chip. I'd suggest picking up some of these and sticking them to the CPU and the rc2016a5.

     god I hope not. Im working right now on replacing the rtc, but once I do thatr I'll move on to getting heat sinks. Just want to make sure it posts again before I sink more money into it
