Well, I finally got everythign and started assembling. I have an ASUS Maximus Formula MB. I turn everything on and it starts cycling through the messages on the LCD, then it stops on INIT ROM and repeats two short beeps. Just keeps doing that.
I have an e8400 chip, and I know the early BIOS versions on the Maximus had a problem with that chip. Do you think that's the problem, or is it something else. I have an old Pent I could plug in to Flash the BIOS if that is the problem, but the INIT ROM code makes me think it's the memory.
I have Crucial Ballistix 800 2x1g memory - I don't know if it's not recognizing it for some reason. I tried re-seating the memory, but nada.
I appreciate any input. Thanks!
