I have recently upgraded my computer. I cannot seem to get any sort of bios screen. Everything is getting power but my monitor stays blank. I purchased a new motherboard, am3 processor, 4gb ram, new psu, new dvd drive, and new videocard. I checked to make sure my mob is compatible with all of these things. made sure to plug in both the mob power and cpu power. The only thing I can think of is I might need a new hard drive or maybe getting an old keyboard to bring up the bios menu. My keyboard right now is a wireless usb keyboard. My old hard drive is ide and my new mob has sata and ide ports. I also have my windows 7 dvd in the drive. Would I need a new sata drive in order to get a bios boot screen. Don't wanna spend another hundred if I don't have to. thanks in advance!!
