Are you gonna keep asking this until you get the answer you wanna hear? It's time to gut your rig & start over. Try booting with minimal hardware, that will eliminate many possible hardware conflicts & help you to focus in on the problem. All you need connected to the motherboard are the PSU (make sure the 4-pin ATX12V1 plug is attached), CPU w/HSF (make sure 4-pin fan plug is attached to the correct header), RAM (one stick only), AGP video card (make sure to connect to PSU if required), & keyboard. That is ALL you need to bootup & get into the BIOS. Disconnect any hard drives or optical drives (just unplug the cables - no need to remove from case), remove all PCI cards, & disconnect the mouse. Now try to bootup.... Asus A7N8X-X 1800+ @8x210mhz 512mb PC3200 Ti4200/8X 128mb WDC 60GB
