Gina is upgrading your computer with a new processor. She installs the processor into your motherboard and adds the cooling system. She powers up the computer, and it begins to boot but then shuts down. What could be the cause of this problem?

Answer :

Answer:

Gina did apply Thermal Paste

Explanation:

Thermal Paste contains heat-conductive metals that help to ensure better conduction of heat from the Central Processing Unit and the heat sink of the computer. It is a cooling agent that helps prevents a computer from reaching a high heat level which is harmful to the computer.

Answer:

No thermal paste was used.

Explanation:

The computer system is a device comprising of a software and hardware component. The hardware is the physical component of the system.

The processor unit, input and output unit and memory unit are the hardware composition of the system. The computer system electronic components like the processor or CPU draws power from a power source, so should overheat when it operates for a long time.

The fan and a heat sink is used to cool down the system. A thermal paste is a conductive viscous liquid that transfers the heat from the component to the heatsink for cooling. When it is absent, heat transfer is reduced or inhibited, so the computer shuts down to cool off.
