First of all, it's not a display of your CPU. It's you powering up your system.

It could be a number of scenarios:
1. Something is wrong with your RAM (A good indication of this is if your computer beeps as soon as it starts up and a blank screen remains).
2. Your motherboard could be fried (Odds of that are low since you claim to have monitor signal, revealing that your video card is fine).
3. Your CPU is fried. Only real way to check this is to find another motherboard compatible with your CPU and test it.
4. Your CMOS battery is dead. Replace it.

From my past experience, #3 and #4 are your most likely scenarios in this case. Hopefully it's only #4 that's the problem.

Good luck.

i would help to know what happened before you turned off your computer. you seem to be saying that the fans and hard drive light work....do you hear the post beep or any beeps at all? can you go into the bios? resetting the cmos is a good place to start. then i would unplug everything except the cpu, memory and video card and reboot. if there is no change, power down and remove the memory and reboot. then the video card and reboot. if you still have no change, its either the power supply or the cpu it's self. the power supply sends a signal to the cpu for it to come on. if it doesn't get this signal, it won't do anything

Well, some settings in your BIOS might be messed up. Try resetting/clearing the CMOS.

This can be either done by changing certain jumpers on your motherboard (look at your mobo's user manual for more info)

OR by taking our your Motherboard battery (the small, round, thin looking one) for about a minute, and taking it back in.

That's the only thing I can think of right now.... O_O

Check that the CPU is properly installed.
