I'm having a bit of a problem with a new ECS motherboard that I'm trying to get up and running. ECS G31T-M motherboard, 4gb of 800mhz ram and a brand new Intel E8500 processor. Everything installed in the case or out of the case, i get no post beep errors, the initial screen comes up, keyboard lights flash, it recognizes the processor and speed of it, recognizes the memory, gives me the options to press <del> to go into bios, but it just hangs there. I get no beep from it and all fans are running as they should. I've checked under it to make sure there are no standoffs potentially hitting the underside of the motherboard. The only issue i can possibly see is the stock Intel cooler is putting a lot of strain on the board and was wondering if it would cause this type of error.
