unusual Asus P5K-E/wifi problem

[aregrim]

I have bought a P5K-E/wifi board, core 2 6426 cpu, x1950 pro 512mb graphics crad & 2 x 1gb OCZ ram. I put it all together and startup, I can get into the bios screen but when I leave the bios the power supply is turned off for 5 seconds and then back on. If I dont go into the bios then it posts fine but after it says "checking NVRAM" the power suppply turns off again for 5 seconds. What the hell is going on, any help would be much appreciated.

First, this is the Love and Relationship section. You should move this post to the computer help section. Second, try clearing the CMOS.

Your PC needs to seek marriage counselling 😛

I recommend making sweet, sweet love to it. Ensure that the cord is disconnected at the time.

Sometimes, fellatio is the only way to get what you want. 😛

The last time I tried to fellate a motherboard, I cut my tongue up pretty badly. Make sure you have the board unplugged for a good period of time. Those capacitors can pack a decent punch.
