Make sure your CPU cable is in properly. It should be an 8 pin connector. Since the light on the CPU is red it kinda makes sense to check the connection.

Make sure all cables are plugged in firmly. If that doesn't work, remove each stick of RAM and try with each stick alone. If still not, remove CPU cooler and check you've mounted it the right way, no bent pins, etc.

It might be worth testing all the components outside of the case and see if the system will post with different parts taken out.
Other than that, I think Buxty knows what she's talking about.

All your names are confusing :S lol
Right i took my processor out and from what I can see nothing is bent.
My RAM has a Green light i also have another green light but i think that's a light for the USB
could it be just the MoBo or the processor :S

If you have an ASUS board which you do, when the system POST's it will check all components, the light that sticks on usually is the issue.
Its not unheard of for motherboards to be faulty, but then again processors can come DOA aswell.
