I just switched over my case to a new Lian Li. Upon booting up i get to the Asus page saying hit Del to enter setup, and everything hangs there. All fans are turning, the green LED is lighted etc. i'm stymied. During one power up, early in the installation, I did smell a little something like burning. I disconnected checked all connections and restarted and no bad indications. I looked the entire MoBo over completely and so no indication of a short. The only change I made was to add a Zelman 7700 cooler. The installl was strightforward, the CPU cleaned up well and the fan is working fine. i'm at a loss here. I can't even get it to go into BIOS, i can only get as far as the entering setup page and it hangs. Any ideas guys? A8N SLI Deluxe, 3500+ 1GB RAM
 
Yep, didn't help. Turned out to be a bad SATA cable and a problem w/ the Lian Li faceplate screwing up the CDROM. Replaced the cable, adjusted the faceplate and everything is up and running. CPU w/ new Zalman cooler and the new case is running 4'C cooler and a LOT quieter with that bid 120mm fan
