Argggg....so if you from atlanta area and have a setup where I can quickly test the CPU and RAM this weekend, please...please let me know. It wont take too long of your time...

Why not just read the manual or lookup the beep code online?

Try just installing the video card, processor and 1 stick of ram. If it still won't post, replace the RAM with the other stick and try again.

Yes, do what Electric Amish said. Also try pulling the memory and vid card out and reseating it.

Worst case, remove the entire motherboard and reseat it. I've had that fix problems.

You make sure you put on all the jumpers right. Also you motherboard may just be defective. RMA's are the greatest invention ever. A one step fix all.

The only jumper that I need to touch is when I clear the CMOS and I did that many times. I hate to RMA the wrong parts. Right now, it could be the mobo, cpu, or rams. Thats why I need some help to do some process of elimination....or something like that ...
