When the CPU is over heated, the motherboard will shutdown automatically to
avoid damaging the CPU, and the system will not power on again.
In this case, please double check:
1. The CPU cooler surface is placed evenly with the CPU surface.
2. CPU fan is rotating normally.
3. CPU fan speed is fulfilling the CPU speed.
After confirmation, please follow the steps below to relieve the CPU protection
