any idea? I am fearing it might be my mobo...

DJ Fluck had this exact same problem early in the year when he was building a new computer. I know we tried new ram and a couple new graphics cards to no avail. I I think he ended up returning the processor, saying it was defective. I'm not sure if the new processor ever fixed it, but maybe if you contacted him, he'd be able to tell you what he did.

This just happened to a friend of mine, not sure exactly how I fixed it but here's what I did.

I took out the battery (It sit out for 2 days) and took out the processor and reseated EVERYTHING. RAM, Vid Card, Cables, etc. Then it magically booted, but gave a CMOS Checksum error on the first boot.

This new mobo should be here mid-week Anyone out there ever use this mobo?

I seriously considered that, but eventually i opted for my, Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe. But i'm upgrading to a 64 bit system soon.
