	Remove the CPU again and check for bent pins. If there are none then carefully reinstall the CPU and thermal paste then clear CMOS and try again.

	Hi thanx !! your suggestion led to the solution !! this is what happened : when I reinstalled the cpu,I overlooked the lever on the socket and pushed the cpu/heatsink assembly back on its socket without first lifting the lever..(which I did not see) I discoverd directly that the cpu whas loose but figured that this was normal. so now I first removed the heatsink from the cpu,installed the cpu and locked the lever,and then installed the heatsink on top of the cpu....tadaa system up and running again..!! Thank you for the reply !! best regards, Lindberg
