Are you sure you are running the correct BIOS? Is the system not starting at all?

Hi Emperus,
i dont think so and light, fan and video card's fan. But i c my sli power1 led lit up red even 5vsb.. i just bought new power supply and return my cpu but the indicator is the same.. now adward post code doesnt switch up to c1 to c3, it just goes straight to a0 c1 c3 to c0..
awards post code mean:
a0 = boot clock intial programs - chipset or bios damage

c1 = Detect memory-Auto-detection of DRAM size, type and ECC-Auto-detection of L2 cache (socket 7 or
below)
c3 = Expand compressed BIOS code to DRAM
c0 = Early chipset initialization: -Disable shadow RAM-Disable L2 cache (socket 7 or below)-Program basic

but i just noctice now their is release before the code start is 2... im stressing myself out, thank u reply to me

i know what u say.. everything is runnin but it isnt bootin nuthin in screen.. i try to clear the cmos couple of time but its still the same.. then i think the biochip is damage..

Try running your system with minimalistic components. Use just one ram stick, video card. If your video card has multiple video out slots then also try connecting your monitor to alternate slots. Sometimes monitors do not display anything even though the OS is running in background.
