Hi.

I recently had the same problem, so I called asus.
It turns out that the bois which ships with the motherboard, does not support the Intel Ivy-Bridge.
In order to solve the problem, you would need a CPU with the same socket(LGA1155) that is NOT an Ivy-Bridge.
When you got this in, the motherboard will post, and you can enter the bois menu. From there you can follow the steps in your manual on how to update you bois with the "Asus EZ Flash 2 Utility". When you have installed the latest bois version, your motherboard should now run with your ivy-bridge cpu
