Will not boot on startup, and gives more than 11 beeps when CPU
installed? Any help would be appreciated, I've tried different power
supply, reset the bios, with a jumper, and by taken the battery out,
nothing happens. Only thing is that I don't have is another PCI
express video card to try on it, could that be the problem, with it
trying to go to bios. I haven't put past on the cpu casue it came
with some on the Heatsink allready was going to add if needed, could
that be the problem with the beeps.

I can't understand your explaination, how many beeps does it give and is
that with or without a CPU installed? If the CPU cooler is AMD then the
thermal pad it comes with is fine to use alone.

Take everything off the board, just leave PSU connected and see how many
beeps. As it's not dead and is still giving error codes I'd say you've got a
fault component plugged into it.

without it.

I am thinking its a BAD MOBO? just becasue there is NO
beeps.
