    Stupid question:

    Do you have the 12V CPU power connector attached?

    (I see that on the P5Q EM it's a 4 pin.)

    If he didn't he wouldn't get to bios.

    It might just be sensor problem, and probably is because modern cpu's wont run without the 4 (or 6 pin) cable.

    If your pc runs fine what's the problem?

    I'm not sure whether that's true or not. lostprophetsam's CPU is a Core2 Duo E7300, rated at 65W. The +12V connector is a booster, rather than the sole source to the VR that feeds the CPU.

    A trivial correction: all the ones I've seen are 4 or 8 pin.
