oops one sec please!

take the mobo out of the case and plug it into your old power supply...although i am starting to doubt it being your power supply because you are getting that bios message on your screen.

no

Sounds to me like your CPU is toast dude.It is doing the same thing that my XP2200+ did when it went to the CPU graveyard in the sky.

ps
while i was posting this my friend just turned on the
comp without a heatsink on 

i think its ok it was only a sec.

Just to let you know,it only takes a second for an AMD CPU to fry with no heatsink and fan on it. What your friend did is a big "NO NO"

[QazQaz007]

ill pick up a new cpu after work later but is there any thing that
i can do now?

also my mobo has heat control so if it did get to hot it will shut down

[QazQaz007]

just switched the power supply and got the same thing

next

take out of case

[QazQaz007]

ok just got it out of the case and started it with a screw driver
and got the same thing
there is nothing else pluged into in, no video card or anything
wtf

so its one of these...
bad mobo
bad cpu
all the above
