I recently ordered a moderate build for my family (don't want them using my comp). The build is as follows:
ASUS A8N-SLI Mobo
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Manchester
Transcend 1GB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM
SAMSUNG SpinPoint P Series SP2004C 200GB
BenQ Black IDE DVD Burner
ASPIRE ATX-CW500WP4 ATX 500W PSU
VisionTek ATI Radeon 7K 64MB PCI GPU
When i turn on the computer i get no image in the monitor so i can't troubleshoot at all. My guess is my BIOS is old. Would a bios boot disk work in updating it? I haven't tried yet but i wanted to know what some experienced people thought first. I know my GPU works because i tried it on my other build and it's fine. Asus wan'ts me to buy another BIOS from them but i want to get a second opinion since they probably just want my money.
