I have an Asus a7v8x w/an xp 2100+ @ stock. I shut down pc last night, now it will not boot. The power supply was left on, and the only thing i get is message from the mobo saying: "SYSTEM CPU CHECK FAILED". what could be causing this and what can i do?
 
Shut it off, unplug the psu, remove the hsf, remove the cpu and reseat it. Replace the heatsink compound and then the hsf and try ita again? Is what I would do.
