Yup, you're gonna need a new cpu, but there's also a chance the problem is the motherboard. Not sure how to test to find out which one it is.

9x out of 10 its the BIOS. Flush the CMOS by reseting the battery and jumpers, see if it will boot then. If that doesnt work disconnect all of the drives and try it again. If you still have bad results then its likely the MB, Ram or processor - all three are significant variables.
