New prescott won't boot...?

[REDKEN]

Hi guys!

I finally got my 3.2E yesterday. Put it in and it won't boot up.
I checked the volts and vcore is 1.47 (with droop mod).
I spent the rest of the night trying to figure out what it is and still haven't been able to get it to boot.
Moving the droop trimmer up or down gave me a Bios check sum error on my ATI AIW (twice) and proceeded to look for a floppy or cd, but the ati is working fine so I know it's not that.
I even left it clearing the bios all night, but nothing.

:confused:

Have you tried to boot it with no vmods on the board?

Thanks for the help!

I tried the CPU on another P4C800E-D and it didn't work. I had ordered it OEM from Newegg. When I got the package, the CPU had gotten out of the plastic cover it came in and was loose inside the box. It had a few bent pins.
I had managed to straighten them out pretty well, but apparently it didn't survive. So...it's going to be exchanged.
Needles to say, I'm not happy with how they packaged this CPU. They should have put at least a staple on the plastic cover so the CPU would not come loose.
