the mobo header is the point where the cable to the drives plugs into
the mobo.
If you have a spare drive with a boot partition on it, then you can plug
it into the appropriate header and see if the system boots from the
drive.
You said earlier that it was booting from a cd, so that would indicate
that the mobo is ok, however I would still test the stat headers with
another drive.
If the system boots, then it is an indication it could be a software
software issue.
however it doesn't rule out things like a flaky northbridge etc.
swap things around and see
