Angel, If you can get your hands on a POSTcard you can narrow it down to exactly what is failing. They aren't real cheap so if you know someone who has one see if you can use it and let me know what the POSTcode is. I do BIOS engineering as well as web development so I can tell you what is failing by the POSTcode. It could judt be the CPU or memory that is bad and not the board itself. Gigabyte makes pretty decent boards so it might not be the board at all.
