1) I reflashed the bios to the new version bios. (I might add that of all the Mother Boards I have owned never once was the Asus Updater able to do this.) <<< Why have if it never works.
Anyways I flashed the bios and lost the Boot Up Screen picture. it asked me if I wanted to replace the picture. Not paying a whole lot of attention and busy I hit yes. Well it asked me for a picture. I really did not want to replace the start up picture. I believe it is called a Splash screen. Anyways the screen when you first start up the Computer. It's a Asus ROG Bird and says HIT DEL FOR SETUP. I have a ROG picture but not the original.
Once you say YES to replace it. It never says CANCEL or BACK. And being afraid of just aborting it for fear of a messed up Bios. I gave it a different picture. I don't want a different picture. But no where on your site do I see this original picture for start up. OK that is problem #1
2) The second problem is I have Crucible Ballistix Tracers. They have LED's that are supposed to light up when running. I know they work because they came from my old Mother Board.
That is what it should look like. But on this Rampage Extreme Board it does not light up and flash. I have gone into the bios and selected the proper DDR3-1600 (It had it set to DDR3-1333) The timing on those are wrong as well. They should be 8-8-8-24 But the Board has them at 9-9-9-24. Not sure if that is why they do not light up and really does not seem to matter they are recognized and work. I have 8 DIMM's all are 2 GB (total 16 GB) There is 4 RED in the RED slots and 4 Blue in the Black slots. But they are all the same DIMM's and color and that should not matter.
Please help here. I'm sure I have other issues but for now this will help.

I wanted to add to this as tonight I built the same thing for my son. He has the same things as me. Same CPU which is a 3930K and the 8 sticks of DDR-1600 Crucial Ballistix Tracers. No LED's on those at all. So it's not my motherboard but I suppose a setting. Perhaps a DIP switch or something in the BIOS.
According to CPU-Z the memory is at DRAM Freq 800 Mhz 9-9-9-24 (DRAM calls for 8-8-8-24) on the mem. Row refresh is 88 Clocks. Speeds are well I will post the pictures that will show it better.
Not sure if that helps. But something on the board is preventing the LED's from flashing.
