Hi there,
selection7
Usually when you have no view, it is set that way in the BIOS, (normal- everything
is okay if you see nothing...)
RESET BIOS:
You have a Jumper #1 (jp1) this is a 3 pin setup.
You have to move pins 1 & 2 to pins 2 & 3 for 15 seconds.
HERE: Incorrect BIOS
settings by user
Clear CMOS with jumper JBAT1 With system powered off move jumper JBAT1 from pins
1-2 to pins 2-3 for 15 seconds and then return the jumper to pins 1-2 and retest
the system.
