Just completed my first PC build and when I boot it up the red CPU light comes on for about 5 seconds then goes off. I don't have a graphics card yet so I can't make sure if everything is running correctly. Should I be panicking?

EDIT: the VGA light comes on about 10 seconds after the CPU light goes off. I just assume this is because I don't have a graphics card yet.

I take it you have an MSI motherboard, and no thats sounds perfectly fine, if the CPU light stays on, then thats something to worry about.
