Default asus mobo dead!

Hello all! I had had 2 asus mother boards with the same problem. The first mobo is the asus a7s333 and the other is my latest mobo the asus a7n8x-e. The a7s333 went south last year after formatting and setting up xp pro with 1800mhz AMD CPU. The system never finish setting up before I got the blue screen, after 2 attempts to re boot from the blue screen (cannot remember the message) the pc just would not boot at all. No signal to the monitor at all. I bought a new asus board the a7n8x-e this year with new cpu 2400+ AMD with new memory, power supply antec 430.and graphic card also new the whole thing is new with a 120gb w/d hard drive 8m cache etc. I set up the entire thing with out a problem all work great. Then a few weeks later I wanted to partition the HD so I reformatted and partitioned once more. But this time the blue screen pop up in the middle of the final set up win xp pro. I reboot but again the same screen (blue screen) came back on the 3rd boot the whole thing went dead just like the previews board. The pc would turn on, power supply fan are on. Lights come on etc but no signal to the monitor. Graphic card and memory all are working fine I bought another CPU AMD 2600+ and replace it. But it did not resolve the problem so it all came down to the mother board I have all new stuff including 3 cpu all working fine and 2 mother boards that are dead? Nothing comes on but the power supply. Did this mobo bios went bad on me? Or this is a common problem for the asus mobo? Not one board, but 2 of them! With the same exact problem. I wonÂ’t be back home for a few weeks but I will make print out of all advice and work on it when I get back home. Thanks

I didn't bother to read all that,but who installed it?
Did he/she know how to ?
Are you upgrading and not sure how ?
Sorry but are you sure your qualified to do this yourself ?
You seem to have missed the basics here.
3 cpu's ? You need an expert to put this all together.
God Loves you anyway.

Default duh!!!

I have been setting these things up since dos was out there. And please read the entire problem before making a statement.
This was a WORKING COMPUTER!!. It works fine till I reformat it!
Have anybody out here had the same problem with an asus mobo? And if you did you had it fix or send back to the company? I heard customer support is not top of the list in this company.

Pete : Next time u post just list out ur components .. it makes it easier to read ..
Now to ur problem ..
Do u have any other PCI cards installed ?
If so then take out all other additional components n' then try the reinstall.

Does the system give any error beeps atleast ??

Finally .. I guess i'm gonna start a Poll .. titled "Does anyone understand what stan-the-man posts "

I had removed all hardware only the video card CPU and memory was install. Power supply comes on but thatÂ’s it. I bought a new A7N8 all is working fine. But very cautious now about this main board. what the **** made this mobo do this is a mistery!
