Aparently there was no problem with any component of my system...

All I needed to do was change the jumper from Normal (pins 1 and 2) to Bios Config (Pins 2 and 3). Once I changed to bios config, it Posted and allowed me to edit Bios settings. After editing them , i put the jumper back to Normal setting, and everything went fine from there.

This is NOT in the motherboard manual, so if you have a similar problem with one of the newer Intel boards, try looking at the bios config jumpers.

Thanks again Hal, your simplification of the situation allowed me to solve this much faster, by eliminating so many variables.
