Monty. Where did the CPU come from? sealed pack? OEM/retail?
How good is install tech?

Static is the ever present enemy and the guy should hold the case or motherboard at an exposed metal point to make sure there is little differential. Low voltage small feature parts are even more susceptible to this problem these days as they cannot absorb even a small charge without going above the death voltage.
