Is this is a new mobo? Try resetting it first. Other than that, I'm also assuming it's a bad board.

Old board...at first I was blown away Asus was claiming it was the memory controller matrix (cpu) and AMD said there was no way that was the problem...ordered new board and it worked perfect...after inspecting my board three of the capicators were blown....not sure what caused it
