I also agree there, it sounds as if one or more of the lock down pins are not pushed down correctly. I wouldn't run the computer till you take it back and get them to reinstall the Heatsink/fan. Also make sure you tell them you want them to take off the old thermal pad and reapply new thermal grease like arctic silver
