Smile [Resolved] HELP!!! cpu fan taken off for cleaning now windows doesnt boot!!

I took off my socket 775 fan for cleaning and to re apply thermal paste, it was abit of a hassle (i bent one of the pegs in the fan that had to be alligned into the motherboard, but after a struggle I got it in, but now when i turn on the computer i get nothing on the screen!! the cpu fan spins so i assume everythings ok their and i assume it cant be the cpu as i didnt actually tinker with it whatsoever I just reapplied the thermal paste on top of it, I have no idea what is wrong with it? Please please help me!
