can not see bios on powerspec G434

James301

I was having an issue with my display port not sending a signal to my monitor. In trouble shooting I removed the video card and rebooted. I then later found that I needed to run the self test on the monitor to fix the issue. Now my system will not 'hook' the video card until the windows lock screen. I can not see the pre boot or bios. I am sure it goes to the bios screen (because it acts like it dose), but the screen is dead. I am using the powerspec g434 with a Mini Display port to a dell monitor. The system has a 'k' in the CPU model number so there is no on board video only through the video card. I have tried to access the bios from windows via the control panel but get the same results.

Can someone help me out with this.

Thanks.

Is this the only monitor that's connected? Verify nothing else is connected to a video output on the PC, even if it's not turned on. Also, this is DP to Mini-DP? No adapters?

yes it was a DP to mini-DP. and THANK YOU!!! You fixed it... I unplugged my HDMI TV and it works like a charm.
