I did get it to post once more (1104) with no video card and one stick of memory in the last blue slot. any info or would be greatly appreciated please do tell! I also get the same results if i force BIOS #2 (which I didn't update)

I have
Core i7 920
PSU EGX1000EWL
memory OCZ3X1600LV6GK


The little LCD poster just says welcome and then begins counting.
Do you have a fan plugged into the CPU fan header? Is your 8-pin plugged in?
Is your rig in a case? Take it out and put it on the plastic shell that came with the mobo.
Do you have any cards other than your video? Including the sound? Take it all out except for one video card.
Do you have another PSU to try? Even a smaller one? This mobo is very picky with the PSU.
