ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe

Hello,
Another no-boot condition
So far I have:
1.) Checked over installed hardware.
2.) Checked over power connections.
3.) Checked over data connections.
I have not changed the position on any of the jumpers, they are all set to default.
Thanks guys & gals

Hello,
I have found the problem to my no-boot condition, it was a bad PSU.
The Enermax Noisetaker 600Watt PSU was new out of the box, and it works, now here is where it
takes a wrong turn. The PSU powers up and sends the correct voltages to where they need to go
sounds good right ?..... wrong, it's the power in-rush causing the system to not start. I only found
this out after I plugged in a Frozen CPU PSU tester, my Fluke multi-meter was showing that it was
making the correct voltages... I just didn't check the in-rush because I didn't think it was a problem.
I had 3 DFI Expert boards doing the same thing and this was most likely the problem with those
3 boards not working also.
If you are having a problem with a no post condition you might want to check the in-rush of your PSU.

Enermax power supplies are notorious for being bad. One of thse worst, IMO.

That's why i'd stick with Antec, OCZ, Silverstone, PC Power and Cooling, Seasonic, and maybe Thermaltake.
