If I had to guess then either the BIOS is busted or the CPU is in the wrong 
socket or the RAM is in the wrong socket.

Either way all bets are off how this is going to pan out. Probably badly when 
it comes to getting the top performance.

Some exploration of the dmidecode output on the machine could be valuable.
