This is my first build, I put it all together on the weekend and when the monitor came today tried to switch it on.... lights come on, fans start but no signal to the monitor and the debug LED code reads 58 (CPU self test failed or possible CPU cache error). I've googled it and the general theme of the threads would suggest that it has something to do with memory so I've tried every config of the mem sticks I can. On their own one of the sticks on it own gets a 34 (CPU post memory initialisation) in every slot, the other gets 58. I've also tried reseating the CPU, no effect.
I don't want to sound melodramatic but I'm really upset, I've just had to leave it and get some strong beer from the shop. Its exacly what I was afraid of when my mate was saying "just build one yourself, its easy!". I'd really appreciate some help, I suspect there may actually be something wrong with the memory and the motherboard but being a total noob I naturally assume I've done something wrong.
