would changes do you need to make in bios in order for it to boot properly?
maybe it doesn't like the settings you have.

You can either be part of the problem or be part of the solution.

1. What Mothow said about the PSu.
2. Double check the RAM - I'm using 2x1GB OCZ PC2-6400 and it requires me to run at higher than stock voltages; my P5KC picked this up automatically. DDR2 spec voltage is 1.8V, I have to run mine at 2.05-2.1V to get it to run at 800MHz. Check the specs online, or just try running it at 667Mhz (instead of 800MHz) to see if that solves your problem in the interim.
