Try removing all NON essentail components from your system. Start with network adapters, sound cards, etc. till you only have video, HDD, CPU, and RAM. That helps eliminate any conflicts with the BIOS and other critical components. If you still cant install then try swapping out the other componets with other "known" working units to isolate the problem. ALSO in the BIOS use the FACTORY DEFAULTS if you haven't already. YOu can always go back and kick up the systems speed in the BIOS after you get it working. One last thing, check your power supply with a meter and make sure that you are getting correct voltages out of the 12V and the 5V sides. YOu should be getting between 11.5 - 12.5 out of the 12V and 4.5 - 5.5 out of the 12V line.

Let me know if you still cant get that thing to work and I will do my best to help you out.

Good luck
