Kent,

CPU0 is the first processor in the box.  If it is a uniprocessor box, it
is labeled CPU0 in the diagnostics.

If it is a new box, it will be under warranty and/or contract (if you
purchased one).  Give Sun a call, they will diagnose the problem and
send the part or the FE to fix it.

My first guess is the CPU or the systemboard.  You may want to reseat
the CPU (and memory since the box is open).


Hope this helps,

HM
