    EXTREMELY frustrated with my new cpu...

    OK, now this thing has me really confused. Just an HOUR ago, I booted it up...and it had the error still. Then I had a friend come over to see what he could do...and guess what? He asks me to boot up my computer so he can see what the problem could be... and of course, the computer works FINE...

    EXTREMELY frustrated with my new cpu...
