I've just received my second P8P67 board after getting what I thought was a DOA board last month. Here's the challenge: When I put everything together the first time using a 750W Coolermaster (more than enough juice for any config, I thought), I found that the only sign of life was the standby light on the board (no post indication at all...not even a spinning fan on the power supply). I took off all components from the board and plugged in the 24-pin and two 4-pin 12V connectors, attached a single case fan and still, no life. I then tested all power supply pins with a multimeter after shorting the power-on pin and all were within voltage spec. Therefore, I concluded I had a dead board. So now I'm on my second P8P67 Pro, and just to convince myself I went out and bought a second 700W Thermaltake power supply (I figured I could always return it), and started from the ground up...SAME THING! Nothing more than the standby light shining green and the power supply fan (and case fan for that matter) wouldn't startup. I called ASUS directly about the board and the engineer I spoke with talked me through the same motions to no avail. He then asked if there was a wire going to position 20 in the 20+4 pin connector...no wire (this is reserved for the old -5V connector which I don't recall seeing in some time). He said that ASUS boards require this connection, and that I needed to buy a power supply with this pin useable. However, I have seen on many forums that people are happily using power supplies that DO NOT have -5V service, so I'm not sure I'm getting such sound guidance. Any one out there with a better explanation as to why I can't get this bad boy to post with nothing on the board?
