i have highlighted the metal thingie on the CPU surface.Hope it helps

My new CPU -Intel core2 duo E8400- is missing one pin. One of my friends did it while he was helping me set up my pc. I am afraid to connect the CPU to the motherboard. Is there a chance it will work?

I've heard about a datasheet where you can see if the pins have any use because some of them have not(?). Its in the far left corner... Any help is really appreciated.

Will it help? i have 2x500GB drives. i want to have one for the OS(Windows XP) and the other will be used for games + applications. Will my PC be faster?

i am asking 'cause when i exit a game the drive is getting quite noisy and windows is slower for 1-2 minutes.
