Water cooling the Asus Maximus SE X38

[neo_rtr]

Have hooked everything up now, but cannot get passed "CPU INIT".
The CPU is a QX9650 and I put one stick of Corsair DDR2-6400 in the ramslot.
Is there a common cause of stopping at CPU INIT ?

1) Does the PC start, meaning do you get power to the mb.
2) i was getting the following... the reset button on the mb is green, the power botton is lighting red.
no matter how much i ws presssing the "power" button on on chassi it wouldnt boot. i was pressing the power button on the mb for up to 2 mins before i could get it to start. It turned out to be a sort circuit on the mb.
iam writing this just in case same is happening to you
