Hi tom's! I tried everything but it doesn't seem to work. I have 2 supermicro X8SIU-F motherboards bought from ebay and two of them are exhibiting this behaviour. I tried Booting only with 1 ram, and tried every ram slot of the two motherboards same 1 never ending beep.

My specs are:
Mobo: Supermicro X8SIU-F ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/151045669365?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT )
Ram: Hynix DDR3 1066MHz PC3-8500R Memory ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/221770317050?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT )
Processor: Intel G1101 ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/181825905086?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT )

Any Ideas on what is the culprit? I checked the supermicro manual and.. I saw there was a blinking orange light that indicates its ram, but I bought 8 ram sticks and how could all of them be bad right? :(

Please help Thank you!

Hello gashonie, I just checked my voltages using my psu tester my PSU is okay.
I just noticed this from the supermicro website

What I have is Registered memory and I have a G1101 CPU, is that why it doesn't have any display and has a 1 never ending beep?

Thanks!
