Ok, think this is a hardware problem, but i'm not sure what component its relating to. When I boot I get this message

and then it just hangs there. the computer was working fine until I unplugged the hdd to test some hardware. When I plugged it back in I got this message. After blowing the dust off the CPU it started working again, but it did this again.

It'd be nice if you actually mentioned the exact kernel version you're using... 
Off the top of my head, try recompiling the kernel without CONFIG_PREEMPT (i.e. get rid of the Preemptible kernel option and, if it's there, of Preempt the big kernel lock).
Edit: Thinking about it - er, are you sure your CPU fan isn't dead? Also, if you're overclocking - don't.

yeah, just realised i didn't have the CPU fan plugged in 
Just letting the chip cool down now before rebooting 
What I want to know is how the fuck you knew that from the information given? |

Glad it's solved 
Still, if you're using 2.6 try getting rid of preempt next time you upgrade the kernel. It causes more problems than it solves. It was important in 2.4 kernels, but in 2.6 it isn't such a good idea anymore. Not worth recompiling your current kernel just for this though - try it next time you switch kernel versions.

Experience (aka CPU body count ).

actually, I keep getting that same error when I boot, and I can't boot from LiveCD's either. Think I fried the chip  |

Downclock it, may still be salvageable albeit at a lower clock speed.

Unseat then reseat IDE cables, if that doesn't work do the same with the RAM chips. Sacrificing a young goat may also help, at the price of some minor SPCA trouble...

ROFL, classic
Yeah, finally got it to work, at full clock. Tested it in another machine and it worked, and then stuck it back into the old machine and it booted fine.
Thanks heaps for the help dude, you've been very helpful |
