hello,
I recently bought the pieces for a new desktop. I have a Asus p9x79 mobo with Intel I7 4820K and Kingston hyperx beast ram 4 8GB sticks. 2400 MHZ pc19200. I have put it all together but when I boot it up it won't bring up anything on the display and my DRAM led on the motherboard stays lit for about 2 minutes, then my CPU led on the motherboard stays lit for a couple minutes, then finally my display turns on and I get the asus logo, but it just goes to a screen that says updating bios please wait, it counts up to 100% but then it just restarts, it never seems to finish. I left it for almost 24 hours and it just kept going. I have flashed the bios with the latest version from asus website, and have tried a different type of kingston ram but that also didn't work. I have tried with just the CPU installed but the DRAM led still comes on. I can't figure out if I just have a bad Motherboard or if something isn't compatible. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
