Suspect memory.... (memory or system boad) Remember the first 64k must be clean to load post code and boot loader code.

Go back to basicis...
1) set boot seq to a:, c: and bios to defaults.
2) strip it to 1 stick of mem, flpy & video
3) boot to diskette with just the system files
4) Then add in memory 1 stick at a time and test
5) next device and test....
etc

I've got one of these boards and they are pretty good once set up. But they are very fussy about the memory and PSU used. Suggest you browse the threads here:
