If its forcing a shutdown of the entire machine, I think it may be protecting itself from a voltage issue. What do you have plugged into your USB ports? It sounds like it has detected a voltage problem coming from one of the devices connected to one of its USB ports or something near it and to ensure that the motherboard doesn't get fried its shutting the computer down.
The message is telling you that its detected a device that is over the allowable amount of electrical current and is protecting itself from electrical failure. It could be a problem with the USB jumpers on the motherboard that connect the front usb ports. You might try unplugging these connectors and try to boot up the machine. Leave them unplugged and boot up the machine, if you still get the error after that, it may be a grounding issue with the motherboard mounts that anchor the motherboard to your computer case. If you have any extra mounts underneath the board that you aren't actually using but are coming in contact with the board, you may have to remove them, which would probably involve removing the motherboard from the case.
Get a second set of dual channel RAM from somewhere and test it in the slots and see if it still gives you the same error code. But most likely it will and you'll need to RMA the motherboard as the RAM slots are most likely BAD.
Testimonial: "Thanks mate..I tested it again with another new set of ram but same problem ...Have sent of a warranty claim.Thanks for yor help..Cheers.Ron"
