System failed CPU test.

July 26 2003 at 6:03 AM
 

 
I am building a new computer: Pentium 4 with 800Mhz FSB. After installing the CPU, I turned the computer on, the vocal post message said: "system failed CPU test". I cleared the BIOS and took the mother board out of the case: the voice message is still the same. Is there anything else I should try to past the test?
Thank you.

You did check your motherboard specs can cope with a 800mhz side bus???,ain't many motherboards around can cope with that speed.
Assuming it can,(top spec mboard) your have to enter your BIOS and setup your CPU manually i suppose.

I'd also check you set the jumpers on your motherboard to the correct setting for your FSB speed.
