Need help with BIOS

[Infantry1982]

Greetings,

I just built a new system. Specs are below:

ASUS P5Q Deluxe
Intel Core 2 Duo E8600
EVGA GTX 285 (factory overclocked version)
2 X 2GB OCZ Platnium 6400
Silverstone Decathalon 800W

I started it. It posted. I want to install a new OS (Vista 64). What do I have to do in BIOS??

Plus, I have that factory overclocked version of the GTX 285. Do I need to make any adjustments in BIOS for that? Should I use the disk that came with my MOBO?

If you could point me in the right direction, it would really help me out.

Thanks

No, just boot from vista disc and run the installation. You might want to set 1st boot device as DVD Drive in the bios.

Thanks for the reply.

So I set BIOS to boot from the DVD drive rather than the C: Drive and then do I exit BIOS before inserting the OS disk?

yep...just make sure your second boot device is hdd. This is not required as you can bring up the boot device selector during system startup.......so it's totally up to you.
