Suspect that video card... can you remove it for now....
You need to setup the motherboard for internal GFX w the HD3000 of the CPU.
THis means you need to set the video BIOS to internal video and limit the ram to 64 megs.
This motherboard has been used in the past and should work
Here is a anotized install method.
