I have this MB and was cleaning the cpu fan with a vacuum cleaner
nozzle. When I was done I tried to reboot the computer and got all
kinds of wierd errors (blue screen, shutting down after windows xp
screen appears). Any ideas on what to try. I checked all the wires
to make sure I didn't knock one loose.

Thanks,
Paul

Check for missing jumpers. Maybe you sucked the CLR_RTC jumper
off its header.

Be aware that devices like vacuum cleaners or blowers, can generate
static. I was reading, that moving air with dust in it, is a good
way to generate static.

Also, you can try reseating the RAM. Pull it from its socket, and
click it back into place.
