    Q code 58 is 'CPU self test failed or possible CPU cache error'

    I'd clear CMOS(inc. battery out for 30 mins), check for any bent or damaged mobo/cpu pins, then try a single stick of RAM in each of the slots one at a time.

    It's in the manual, you can get a pdf version from the Asus website if you haven't got a hard copy.

    Wow, I checked there but couldn't see that error code, it changed the CPU cooler from a Coolermaster water cooler to the standard heat sink and it is working now, odd!
