My money is still on the board not reconizing the CPU. How many DOA intel CPUs do you here about?

But the DFI guys in Taiwan said they rolled it back to an earlier BIOS and it still boot. I bet the mobo is toast. I really don't think it is the CPU. I just can't see the mobo not at least booting to a certain point. It will through an error before it tries to load windows but it should still at least boot to the point where you can flash your bios.

Well lets hope you just need another board.
