sounds like a BIOS problem. Check the battery in the board. Make sure it hasn't busted open or something (had that happen once). It doesn't sound like a fried processor. Usually, if a processor is fried, you will not get it to POST at all.
To clean off the processor, use 91% alcohol. Not the weak 70% stuff.
If you think its the processor, take it out and clean it off. You should be able to easily tell if its fried.
signatures suck
