so i just switched out a motherboard from the p5k to the p5q pro
and added 2 more hd

now problem is that when i plug in 4 hds come wont come on until i press the power button for a couple of times
the hds and everything start running but nothing on my monitor
updated the BOIS and same thing
plus i get the bsod agian when it does boot up

specs
c2d E6750 no o/c yet
4gb reaper ram
4 hds 320gb + 500gb + 500gb + 320gb
8600gts
and shit loads of fans
580W PSU

im thinking of a higher voltage psu?

and anyone want to recommend me a case that wont create a big cluster like this

Take out everything except for the essentials (cpu, motherboard, ram, 1 hard drive, graphics card, psu) and see if it is running properly.

If so, then reinstall additional hardware one by one and test.

it runs fine with just my os hd and a data hd
after that it doesnt work properly
it did however work when i had the p5k board
im not sure how much power the p5q takes up
