    P5N32-E SLI won't post with its sound card installed!!!

    Hi guys
    My ASUS P5N32-E SLI won't POST when I installed the ASUS Supreme-FX sound card (which came with the package). When I took the sound card out, the PC works fine. As a result I am using a creative USB sound blaster instead.
    Anyway, can any one tell me what is going wrong with this MB or it was the sound card?
    Cheers

    thats odd.

    Are you sure its inserted all the way?

    Did you put all the motherboard standoffs in the correct places?

    Yes, I have tried a couple of times, the sound card was firmly pressed into the slot.

    Nop, I had some problems with the screws and the standoffs, as a result I was only able to install 7/9 standoffs. Do you think the MB wasn't properly grounded? But the MB works fine apart from the sound card part.
