Just put together my sig rig (pics on the way) but it wont post I have a backlit LED keyboard and that is not coming on either if that helps at all the monitor just says no signal. I have tried switching from DVI to HDMI I will try VGA while posting this.

Boot up with 1 stick of RAM, switch the GPU to a different PCI-E slot. Do the fans turn on? Lights? HD/DVD? Nothing is shorting out the motherboard, correct?

yes the mobo lights up even boots using the onboard switch
changing DIMMs did nothing
The mounting for the CPU was a little unstable I attributed it to shooty craftsmanship maybe a remount?

Everything is on and connected correctly I just don't see a post from the computer when I boot. Nothing but a blank screen.

Does it have a Post lcd, the thing that has the code on it that tell you what its doing? ( i forgot what it was called
) If it doesn't change at all or doesn't respond to anything like no ram or GPU or CPU or what not,then its probably a dead board
That happened to me with my 780i last month

but just check the cables, reset CMOS, and what not.

keyboard works when I plug it in the front USB ports not the back one that I tried

Sorry to hear that
but at least you weren't like me I set up my watercooling system and cable management that took 6 hours of work before i knew mine was dead
It might not be asus's falt, sometimes the slightest amount of static electricity will kill a board but who knows

I was just trying to get the system to post today water cooling is on the way for me. I was grounded with rubber soles the entire build whatever newegg will replace it. Sigh now I have more waiting to do yay...
