</span>I've seen that message ("unsupported mixed cpu monitor/mwait support<br>
detected") in another thread recently. In that case, I believe the<br>
solution was to reset the BIOS to an "optimised performance" factory<br>
defaults set.<br>
<br>
Can you try various default BIOS settings that to see if that allows<br>
the system to boot?<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers.<br>
