Would you like something in exchange ?

Thank you @wutske for your prompt response to my thread. I did replaced the bios chips with another R4E chips that had the latest bios. My first thought was of the lose connection but i do not have any extended practical knowledge for these types of diagnostics / troubleshooting. The reason to take matters into my hands is due to the fact that the repairer in our country are not strict professionals and mostly end up ruining the hardware to a non repairable state. I have other hardware as well with issues. The most of them are due presence of humidity in the surroundings.

Did you tried to power it on without having the memory installed ? check what code it displays ?

Hi there HWBot folks. I ran into a matter of serious pain of not getting my Asus R3E to boot for the first time. The problem is when I hit the power button. The cpu light is red (near 24pin power) but does move up to Dram and vga. After sometime the cpu reaches certain heat level and i press restart and the cpu light moves to dram and vga and vola it boots up normally. What i need to fix that the motherboard turns on itself normally. The cpu needs to heat up and then i have to press restart in order to make it to boot. Im not on slow boot or any LN2 I have tried 2 Powersupplies. Dozen on ddr3 ram combinations. a range of i7 and xeon processors. No matter what I do i still need the cpu chip to heat up and then press restart to make it to boot.
