ML110 G6 doesn't power on after a thermal paste change

Hi Guys,

I have an ML110 G6 working hard since 5 years. During on-dutty maintenance, this time, I decided to change the thermal paste of CPU and bridge chipset.

But when I put back everything on its place, my surprise: the server doesn't start even to spin fans.

I'm sure I did not damage any phisical component and I tested the power supply unit, it's ok.

When I plug in the power cord, standby led brights and BMC led starts to blink however, when I press the power on button (on the front, beside the usual orange light) it does nothing!!!

There's no movement of fans, no beeps no anything, I'm now desesperated.

I removed all excep cpu & tried -> nothing. Reset CMOS via motherboard switch didn't work either.

Could be any other operatin that I need to perform to power it up?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Kr,
