Just put everything together and when i try to boot i get the audio
message. System CPU test Failed. I checked everything. I have a slot
478 2.8 ghz 800FSb
 
Bill,

Your problem sounds familiar. See my entry this news-group at 6:44PN on
Saturday, 15 Nov.
On occasion, I'd get a "CPU test Failed" BIOS error also, but that usually
happened after a power-off restart.

Try some more "cold restarts" to see if you can even get a video display of
the BIOS error message and if you do, verify the correct BIOS settings and
press on thru the POST process. I serious doubt that you have a failed CPU.

I'd certainly report the problem to the ASUS helpdesk an let know you
problems. I'd be interested to hear their suggestions.

Regards, Patrick
 
Are you using the Intel stock heatsink/Fan?
