I received my RMAed motherboard back from MSI today, and although it
powered right on, the BIOS wouldn't post unless I disconnected the
CDROM drive and used a different CPU. I had been overclocking an
AMD64 X2 but luckily I had a Sempron to test with.

Does this sound like a case of an overclocked CPU burning out and
taking a couple of devices with it, or is it more likely that the
motherboard died and took a couple devices with it, or something else?
