Reseat all memory, video card, sound card, PCI card drives and verify the "24-Pin" motherboard power cable and "4-Pin" CPU power cable are secured mounted to the motherboard. You should also try to isolate a bad component, such as a stick of memory, PCI card, or video card and see if that resolves the issue.
