Maybe the message is telling you the CMOS checksums are bad
because the BIOS battery is dead or disconnected. Or something
loose is shorting the "reset the CMOS" jumpers.
It could also be you have a CPU that is overclocked too much,
or the CPU cooling fan failed causing overheat failures.
A loose cable can stop the fan too.
There are reports of CPUs remarked to a higher MHZ than
Intel's original value, so they are overclocked even when
you didn't intend it.
