hi im running an asus maximus formula with 4gb of OZ ram, 2 sats dvd drives, 1 sata hdd 2 ide hdd, a nvidia 7950GT XFX pci e, a be quiet dark power pro psu, intel 775 qx9650 or a q9650 one of them cant exactly remember

i had to send the oldpsu back as when i used to turn it off about 3 mins later it would randomly turn the pc back on and lose all of its settings etc, once turned off at the back of the power supply left for half an hour or so turn back on restore the default settings on the bios menu worked fine, so i gave up thought it was the psu turns out it was found faulty - got the new one sent back to me today and im getting no futher than CPU INIT, no display out put no beeps nothing, any ideas ?
