Ok i just built my first computer, great i know...i have an MSI K8N NEO4-F board w/ AMD Atholon 64 3500 venice core.. my problem is, when i start up the computer on the monitor it will show a screen that says hit TAB to switch POST or DEL to SETUP BIOS...now if i hit tab it shows all the hardware i've installed so it recognizes everything..then goes to a black screen... when i hit DEL at the first screen it goes to a black screen...Also i found out that if i hit DEL and turn off my monitor and back on again it will show a blue screen with a white line down the middle, and no writing..so basically no matter what button i hit i can't access my bios..it just goes blank...I want to install windows xp but can't boot start the program..any ideas? thanks--
