Warning CPU has changed Enter CPU setting in CMOS

Asked by polkadot in Miscellaneous Hardware

Tags: , , , ,

I was working on something plugged in a microfone and the whole pc froze, so I manually restarted and it was fine.  This morning I went to turn it on and I get "Warning CPU has changed Enter CPU settings in CMOS" I have not changed the CPU on this pc since I put it together. I went into the setup and its asking for a password, I have never had a password on this pc for CMOS.

I keep trying to reboot. Its highly variable. A couple of times I got it all the way into windows and then it froze. Other times Ill reboot and it seems like the cpu fan is running nothig else happens.  


Is this hardware issue? If it is where do I start to diagnose?
