If that error is quoted, its an unusual error message.

Have you flashed youre bios to the latest version for that board?

Strip the system down to 1 stick of ram, mobo, cpu and vid card. NOTHING else besides the psu. see if you can get bios to post.

Ok, I'm not sure if this is apart of the "Tempared with before", but yesterday night I was installing the motherboard, gfx, and plugging in the system, I wanted to see if the fans where working, so I turned it on, then notice that the fan turned on, but did not rotate, so then I turned it off.

im guessing that your jumper for the side panel switch is set to "yes i have a chassis intrusion switch" so if your case doesn't have one you need to move the jumper to the other position or if you do have one then its teling you that the door was opened. the part in the mobo manual about the chassis intrusion switch will cver settings and resetting

That sounds like it is it, cuz that is a not a standard error message
