I had an Asus P2B board that I had similar problems with.  I believe if you
read the manual it  states it needs PC-100 sdram even if you are running a
66 Mhz bus speed.  I changed the ram and got the PC 100 sdram.  I tried 3
different video cards but had no luck.  I found that the motherboard was
shorting out so I used all plastic spacers which worked for about a week and
it started again.  Since the motherboard was still under warranty I returned
the motherboard for a new one.  The new motherboard worked like a charm the
first time I booted it up with no problems.  It also worked with SDRAM that
wasn't  PC 100 compliant ram.
