I am retrofitting someones computer and it boots to the BIOS splash screen but no farther. The BIOS seems to function fine but that's it. We've tried different lots of RAM in many configurations, and gone over all the wiring a few times. It gives a clear POST, though twice after some fiddling it gave us continuous beeps.

2x8GB Corsair Viper (XMP)
MSI GTX 970 100me
Sentey 725w
OCZ Arc 100 (WIn 7 boot)
WD Green
The RAM is from my working computer and I am using the RAM from the build (just fine), we tried messing with the XMP files which caused a continuous short beep code. HDD and SSD were working just yesterday as well as the PSU, used multiple outlets and power cords. I have done the battery CMOS reset multiple times. Nothing we've tried works, just heading down the checklist and asking for advice.
Everything is new except RAM and storage. PSU is now 4 days old and worked with an AM3+ board w/ an FX 4130/750ti/4x4GB Ripjaws.
