    Hello everyone:wave
    Im hoping someone here has the same motherboard who was having the same problem im having because it is driving me crazy.
    The board was running perfectly for about a week then the monitor just went blank whilst i was playing a game,i fiddled with the monitor cable behind the monitor and it came back on,so i thought it was a loose connection to the monitor,the next day it happened again,this time it took longer to get on,and seemed to come back on after i ejected my usb dvd drive door.
    But the pc wont come on when i start it up,just a blank screen,with onboard graphics enabled it works fine.
    Anyway i wont bother you with all the different things i thought could be causing this,i ended up buying a new gfx card (Gforce 460) the same as i had bought with the mobo,but by Gigabyte,a new power supply,and still the same problem.
    I can get it on after many attempts,its like it just comes on when it feels like it,i am thinking the pci express slot is the problem on the board,why does it come on sometimes and wont most of the time?
    I am going to send the motherboard back on Tuesday and they will test it etc,so i thought i would check in here and see if anyone has had the same experience with the same board.
    Heres a bit more info about the board if it helps:
