    I isolated the problem to be the videocard. I used a friend's 9600GT and it worked perfectly. Good luck with yours.

    I have the EXACT problem as you. Same mobo cpu, but I have an Asus 4850. I get no post at all and the videocard fan throttles back and forth. Let me know how it works out for you. I'm doing tests of my own.
