EvilHomer you seem to be on a roll lately with computer problems. Maybe take a break and have a beer?

Do a minimal install outside the box with one stick of ram and the GPU. Make sure the stick of ram is in the right slot for that configuration. Make sure any needed additional power connections to your GPU are plugged.

C'mon, you know this. Sometimes you have to start with the basics. There aint no 'easy' button.

Try reseating the cpu. Take it out and put it back in the slot. It's happened to me once. Wasn't seated correctly in the socket and didn't even post.
