Try re-seating your cpu and vid card. You probably moved one of them slightly while messing with the memory.

i pulled and reseated everything before posting.
I wish it was that simple.
I've been around <eg> a time or two.
I think this mobo is trash!
i'll never buy another asus product i think.

well.........
After Daddyg's suggestion I proceeded to reseat everything again, 3x
still nothing..........
so after throwing a few manuals i decided to try it again.
i reseated that #$@% vid card, mem and cpu 6 more times and guess what,yep, it booted!!!!!!!!!!
Care to spank me for doubting you DaddyG?
<veg>
Thanx

Tasmaam,

Consider yourself spanked !!. This type of thing happens to all of us at some time or another.
