Maximus 5 Extreme weird number?

Hey guys, I just build my desktop with the Maximus 5 Extreme mother board. On the motherboard, it has a Q_Code LED. I'm getting a weird number on it that doesn't even make sense. Here is a picture of the LED. It has a weird backwards 6 and a 7.

(The picture is rotated 90 degrees counter clock wise).

Does anyone know what it means? I'm worried that there might be something wrong with my CPU or something. Also, I only got to the boot screen. I haven't gotten past that yet because I was just doing boot tests without keyboard and such. This might be the problem?
 
Is there anything in the manual about those codes? And yeah, connect everything and double check everything, it could be something as simple as a cable that's not connected properly or a RAM stick not in all the way. Very unlikely your CPU.
 
As John said, finish the build, d7 usually means no input devices, so plug everything in and try again.
