Well eva2000 has sent DFI a email about the situation. Going to wait for their response on the matter that way I know for sure if it is needing an update or not. Otherwise I have my finger on the trigger and waitin to fire away.

Thank you eva.

This is where I got to in all of its glory. It was soon all down hill from there though. Man that shit pissed me off.

[Kal-EL]

Damn that looks impressive.

[DrNip]

Yeah and it only had 1 of the 3 sticks in it a 1 of the 2 GPU's in it.

Still no word back on my situation and I have asked every main forum as well as DFI and the Amandtech article where they used the same exact setup as I had.

Received a response from RGone over at DFI Forums.

I spoke with DFI R&D in Taiwan and they went back to the very early 11/05/2009 bios and the D0 will boot with 'even' that early bios. Earlier than the original shipping bios. They suggested that you might be better served by RMA'ing the board where you bought it since it could be the board or it could even be a DOA cpu.

GOD i hope it isn't the CPU as if I have to RMA it and get back a C0 I will be pissed!!!!!!

[Chuchnit]

My money is still on the board not reconizing the CPU. How many DOA intel CPUs do you here about?

[DrNip]

But the DFI guys in Taiwan said they rolled it back to an earlier BIOS and it still boot. I bet the mobo is toast. I really don't think it is the CPU. I just can't see the mobo not at least booting to a certain point. It will through an error before it tries to load windows but it should still at least boot to the point where you can flash your bios.

Well lets hope you just need another board.
