Sadly your findings are of no use to the OP. He was testing with a single module of RAM and still could not get the board to come to life. In this instance I feel it necessary to point out that the OP purchased this product used. In all likelihood the original owner damaged the board and then sold it to recoup losses (not cool).

As for your issue, I would suggest you start a new thread. Before you go about updating the BIOS you may want to try installing 2 modules of RAM then going into BIOS and setting your VCCIO and VCCSA 0.1v higher than stock values (I wouldn't exceed 1.2v on either however to be safe). This is often needed on Skylake boards when populating all 4 memory slots.
