I have tried different RAM in different slots, 1 and 2 sticks (Corsair 6400 2GB Kit, and some DDR2 3200 400MHZ borrowed from work <-- does this RAM work on P5B?), different video card, and I have also unplugged all other peripherals other than Video card and RAM, and the same issue happens with no beep sound and no post screen.

I also did the CMOS jumper reset, with no success, I think I am going to try a stick of PC4200 or PC5400 of DDR2 and if that doesn't help, RMA the board .

Please let me know if you have experienced the same issue, and the different things you tried.

Thanks a lot in advance!

SPEC of my new system:
P5B Deluxe
E4300
Geforce 7900GS
2GB Corsair 6400C4 RAM
OCZ PowerStream 520 (this PSU has a 4+4 = 8 pin power adapter for the extra power connector on the P5B Deluxe).
Could be the motherboard itself. Did you buy it used? Try to exchange it.
