Supermicro H8DGU-F board refusing to boot properly

[LoneZebra]

I have recently ordered a socket G34 supermicro H8DGU-F motherboard that came with two amd opteron 6172 12 core CPUs already installed from seller. I have two opteron 6276 16 core CPUs that I want to use but I have an issue with the board. I'm using a 2tb Toshiba hard drive with a fresh install of Ubuntu on it and a single 8gb stick of corsair vengeance ram. I only have one cpu installed as I had read that sometimes you need only one because the bios needs updated or a setting enabled for dual cpus to work. When I try this with my regular USB 2.0 keyboard plugged in and my 2tb hard drive I get a spash screen where it displays the cpu type, speed, and core count and one stick of ram @1333mhz. Then it says enabling usb controlers, checks the 8gb of ram, and goes black and does nothing else. They keyboard is not normally get power when doing this but if it does I can sometimes enter the bios and start to move before the screen goes black. The CMOS has been reset and infact with the CMOS battery installed it will not even do this, I get a spash screen with cpu info for about 2 seconds then just black. Additional info the ram is in the blue spot furthest from the cpu, both 12pin EPS connectors are plugged in, and I'm using a supermicro 600w gold rated redundant psu. If anyone knows how to get this thing to even keep from black screening, it would be MUCH appreciated.

Are you testing this with the processors that shipped with the motherbd?
Bios updates need to happen with a processor that already works, not the one you want to get to work. I doubt this is your issue but it was unclear in your post which processor is giving you this issue.
