I recently purchased (2) brand new Biostar M6VCF mobo's and, installed them in mid-towers with 250watt power supplies. After following the set-up procedures outlined in their guides, I encountered the following problems. (1)--pushing the power on button lights the power-on led along with the HD led and it does it's blinking and such. Then--I get a series of long-repeating beeps continously and no video or anything.  Upon pushing the power off button and holding it in until it powers off--the power led remains on until I open the main power switch. Iv'e tried all combinations of video cards,known good processors and, memory but to no avail. The mobo's are Biostar M6VCF boards with Award bios and, Via 694x-686b chipsets. Using celeron 500mhz ppga processors on 66mhz fsb and clocked at 8.0. S3 savage 2000 64mb video card, 128mb pc100 ram C 20gb HD, 52x cdrom etc. etc. Like I said, Iv'e tried all combinations of these components and both boards react the same. Could both of the boards be bad right out of the box or did I mess-up or, miss something somewhere.  Never never have had this problem before. Is there any help out there with the listers?
