CPU red light on MOBO

Hi, so I’m putting my rig together everything seemed fine made sure the connections were right and everything. When I went to turn it on the fans and everything started up but nothing else so I looked at the mobo and noticed the red light on for the cpu. So I took out the CPU made sure it was fine and put it back but the light still on and won’t do more than turn on the fans and LEDs. Any idea of what it could be?

I figured it out, I had everything plugged in correctly on the MOBO and everything looked good on the PSU side as well but I went and pushed each one in to make sure they were all in right and the CPU one wasn’t pushed in all the way. Tried it again and all good installing windows rn. Thank you though!
