Hi everyone,
After 5 years of flogging my AMD X2 4400+ I bought a new Intel 1155 setup and put it together today.
I can't get it to enter the BIOS. It shows a screen of "press DEL to enter BIOS" then goes to a Marvell checking screen. After that my display goes to garbage. If I press DEL or any other key when the display is borked it reboots and the same thing happens. Even if I don't press any keys it goes to the same thing.
Specs:
Asus P8P67 Pro
i5 2500k
Radeon 6850
16GB Corsair DDR3
I tried different monitors, my old video card, a different keyboard, a couple of iterations of different memory setups all with the same result.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
franksta
Update:
I disconnected my hard disks and SSD leaving only my DVD drive connected and was able to enter the BIOS. I put the DVD on one of the Marvell ports and my other drives were on the Intel ones. There was a note with the manual stating something about AHCI being enabled by default. I don't know if that would have effect here but disconnecting drives from the intel controller allowed me to enter the BIOS. Hopefully I'll be able to put the other drives back in the system.
