Backstory: I put together a cheapo gaming system using second hand bits found on eBay. My http://www.fixya.com/support/t6096618-asus_striker_extreme_init8042_error motherboard of choice was the Asus Striker Extreme. Current situation: I've put the system together and powered it up. I get no beeps, no VGA and no post but there is HDD activity, like the system is booting to XP. I have read a few forums where people have said the problem lies with the BIOS re-setting the ram http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/279813-30-asus-striker-extreme-woes-usual-appear voltage to 1.8v and therefore it won't recognize anything above that. However if I take out the ram and graphics card there are no beeps to say that either have been removed. The LCD screen doesnt change saying there is any kind of error (it permenantly reads CPU "INIT"). The setup: Intel Core 2 Duo (cant remember what type, maybe an 820) 2GB Kingston HyperX KHX8500 XFX GeForce 9800GTX 728 WD E-IDE HDD 40GB (taken from an old system) So....is the board cooked? Is it just a voltage issue? Any advice/constructive comments (other than throw it in the bin) would be very welcome. Thankfully I have a 7 day guarantee from the eBay seller so can return it if its screwed and get my money back Thanks More about : asus striker extreme woes usual dribbler_83 7 September 2010 21:45:42 Forgot to add: Im running a OCZ Modstream 520W PSU dribbler_83 7 September 2010 23:52:44 Have been fiddling some more and carried out the following: run the system outside of the case to make sure

Do you have the latest version of the BIOS? If you init8042 error turn the computer completely off and back on again.. it should boot with safe settings and ask you to go back into the bios.
