Problem with boot and motherboard

[gordonheimer]

I just finished putting together my friends CPU. At the boot it stays at the intel screen and says EB in the bottom corner. After about 20seconds it powers off. We originally had to replace the ram because it was too high voltage but now we still have a problem. I am thinking the motherboard is still having a problem reading the RAM. Anyone have any ideas of what i could do?
