It turns out that the processor is not supported after days of trying to get through to asus. It turns out that the m3n ht deluxe will support the amd phenom 9950 but the m3n ht deluxe mempipe will not. I forgot to mention the mempipe in my post. so I will RMA the processor and get a phenom II 955 which is supported. Thanks for your assistance.
