Striker Ex, Galaxy 1kw = no boot, two beep of death.

Hi All,
Got a bit of a problem on my hands!
You know its coming!
680i - the Asus Striker topped with an Ener Galaxy 1000 and a pair of 88GTXs
I have the TWO beep of death situation i have 3 boards, tried them all.
I have had them fully loaded and just board alone with the 24 pin con, even a 24-20 converter Always getting a quick
power on then the two beeps, tried it all.
The PSU was working in my AMD rig... i have a 560 truepower i tried the board with b4 i mounted it, it seemd ok..
as there was noting else there, i turned it off thinking i would be safe.
I know the score with the SLI 88 and the Galaxy but no deal on the one! I even tried my cat in the PCI slot, i got a MEOWW n nothing more (hehe)

Has any one got any views on this!
I gots to go in it
QX6700 or 6800
OCZ Flex
Crtv X-FI music
Pair of 8800s (BFG)

Would a new PSU sort me out? worried about this "G80 Tested & Ready" taken for this PSU!
What do i do?

I have since tried using the TT560 to find the same kind of problem, i also have a new 400w thing, turns on and stays on (board only)

I have had all the boards on my bench and in a case, tried them with all hardware on, with none on, with CPU, one RAM mod, one GFX, same issue every time!
i have since hooked a board up to a working pc, diss con the ATX and connected to the striker to find the same prob, a little spin of fans and off again.
I tried a new 400w THING with one and it came on and it stayed on untill i turn it off.
I am so lost. the error is supposed to be showing as a SHORT or ABNORMAL Load.

Are you saying that out of 3 motherboards, 2 cpus, 2 graphics cards and 2 psus, you cant get a working pc?

If so, I would suggest borrowing a cheap stick of ram that runs at 1.8v and seeing if itll boot up with that, go in the bios and set the vdimm to 2.45 (or whatever those ocz sticks use) and then power down and take the cheap ram out and put the ocz back in.

Failing that, rma the lot and get some tried and tested bits or you could be there for a rather long time :)

WOW!
Sounds very bad when you put it like that hey!
I cant get anything with a board only!
Nothing but the Board!!!! so cant be a ram Issue!
I am kind of thinking it be the PSU! as the cheapO 400W will kick the board over and it will stay on but the Galaxy wont stay on for A Second

are you DRUNK?

not drunk but PEEED OFF!

How the hell do you have so much high end hardware and can I have some?

GRRR!
Help. lol.
I sold my wife and cars!!!

I don't think the Galaxy works with SLI GTXs on the 680i board.
