YEEEEE HAWWWWWWW well heres how i fixed it I took the processor out, dropping it onto my 7950 gx2 in the process and bending one of the outer most pins on the bottom of my cpu. I bent the pin back into place and recovered the cpu with the silver stuff (so exicted that its back and work i cant remember what the stuff is called) and reseated teh heat sink (stock) and plug the power back in and rebooted and POW all the way through post. YE HAW i so pumped. So what I have learned. Reseat your CPU carefully. I hope that fixes other ppls problems. WELL CRAP Went and plugged everything back in and what do you know it did it again. So I went backwards. I unplugged all my usb devices, mouse ipod cable, printer cable, bluetooth antenna. And viloaa it works. Could a faulty USB device cause my mobo to not boot?

well i had to buy not 1 but 2 of the replacement batteries. Now I have a fresh one and a spare. And still no change in boot problem. I have tried the memory in every slot, the mobo knows when theres no mem or no video card. 2 different psu and still the same result.

i took the battery out and it booted and stoped after listing my processor, so it could be the battery. im going to go buy one now and try it. wish me luck

oooh good idea, I will go to target right now and get a new one. Except that it gets to the initial post screen where it only lists my processor and it never gets to the mem test.

It won't even let me into my bios is it dead?

I am having the exact same problem. This morning while reading a website on how boot sector and bios viri could be on a rise, my computer blinks off and restarts, and gets stuck at the DFI lan party logo. I turned the computer off and unplugged it from the wall, and then left to go to work. Now, I'm back and I have tried both my defualt and back up PSU (PC Power and Cooling 1kW, and Antec 550w NEO HE), both PSUS, test out with my tester. I have unplugged everything from the mother board, except for fans, pc speaker, on button, led status lights and video card (nforce 7950 gx2). After clearing the bios I get to post screen and get stuck at the line where it lists my CPU (amd x2 4400). So, on the debug lights the far left light stays on, and I only get 1 beep from pc speaker, all this with just mobo, video card (with its sli connector), 1 stick of memory in 2st slot, and PSU and its 3 power cables (24 pin, 8 pin, fdd connector). Bios is currently 04/06/20006 nf ck804 6a61fd4ec-00 I can't even hit del or esc to go to setup or boot menu respectively. Also I have tried 2 different ps2 kbs. I have replaced the bios battery. I also noticed I no longer see the dfi lanparty boot screen. What could be wrong?
