It's detecting a short when the CPU is powered, so either the CPU part of the board is damaged, or the CPU is, or both. Because you've told us absolutely nothing about the system I can't say what board to get as a replacement, because I've no idea what would be compatible until I know what CPU you're currently using (or better yet, the board you've damaged)

Try taking the mobo out of the case, place it on a piece of cardboard, and see if it powers on. If so then the mobo is fine and you can possibly fix the short. Assuming this is a custom build, try removing the i/o panel. This happen to me recently and sure enough, the i/o panel was the problem.

I prefer a phone book...that way you can put the board on the edge of the phonebook with the cards installed and their tabs hanging over the side. It is the only thing I use phonebooks for!
