I am building a computer and when I set up my BIOS on my computer all is good until I save and exit. The monitor turns off and it won't do anything. If I try to restart it, the monitor does the same thing.Does anyone know what I am talking about? I don't know much about this stuff so anything helps. If you could e-mail me that would be great.

Thanks

Bobbi........Well it sounds to me as if you are setting something in the bios that the computer doesnt like. Have you tried just using the default setting ? Also which part of the setup were you working in ?

let us know

I set the settings to the default settings and it did the same thing. I don't know what part I was working in. It is the CMOS setup utility.

It is new. It can with a driver installation disk and the manual.

Is your OS installed? If not, try installing the OS and then install the drivers. If the driver disk is DOS based you should be able to boot with a DOS disk and install drivers.
