Power Supply call connected to everywhere it needs to be?
Have you put all the screws in under the motherboard???
Does the Ram sit properly??
is the CPU in right???

Can be a multiple of things

Ya all of that is fine, but i just got looking and the processor is a 65nm and the board said its supported 45nm. Asus said it should work but what dose the nm mean?

nm=Nanometer.
Try one stick of RAM, one video card, and air cooling.
Reset the BIOS using the jumper on the motherboard (consult the manual).
Check the BIOS jumper for the correct run position. Some motherboards ship with the BIOS jumper set to the reset position.
Lastly, connect a fan to the CPU fan header, some motherboards won't post if it does not detect the RPM of a fan on the above mentioned header,

Good luck!
