In our corner of Dixon, the power goes out if someone looks at a power line funny. It happened earlier today, just a blink in the power.
I was away from my computer at the moment. When I got back, I saw that my computer had been forced to reboot. The boot process had stalled, though, with the following message: CPU IS UNWORKABLE OR HAS CHANGED -- Please rescan now (It's a dual-processor system) I pressed F1 and was able to finish booting just fine. The computer runs both win2k and Linux without any change in performance from before, and there is no sign that the computer is slower or not working or anything. What does this mean, and how do I fix it? I am by no stretch of the imagination a hardware guy; I can hook up a printer and install a CD-ROM drive and a couple of memory chips if absolutely necessary, but I much prefer not to mess with my computer's guts. Any thoughts? Prayers? -- Sliante, Richard S.
