Check all hardware. Check cables/connections.

Hi,

Looks like an error in CPU 0 -- due to software issue.

You may do a power cycle and try bootingwith a diff CD also.

Hi,

If you have one more CD set try using that. If it fails, suggest you to install the Previous OS and see whether it works. This will confirm what is the problem.

Else raise call with you local HP

If so, I guess you have some h/w problem, better raise a call with local HP.
