    Good advice - reflash using ezflash and a USB stick. Before you do that though I would check the CPU seating- You may not be getting proper contact. You may have inadvertantly got some paste on the contacts. I remebered reading this thread http://www.techsupportforum.com/hard...y-boot-up.html were the person encountered the same problem and it turned out to be a bent pin on his AMD setup. Clean you CPU contacts with some CPU cleaner and reseat. Check the MB contacts.
    For reading temp sensor etc and diplaying on screen try PCWIZARD 2008. http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php Neat little tool and displays on screen when you minimise it.
