[QUOTE="floppybootstomp, post: 14281697, member: 4"] The problem is that when I enter the Bios the screen resolution is too big so I can’t get the mouse over any menu options, The cursors don’t have any effect. I have re-installed the Bios with the same one which is the latest one via the Windows 7 64 Bit SP1 OS. I have also tried messing with the monitor settings and tried a different monitor all to no avail. The computer is seven years old at least – last Bios, the latest, is dated June 2012 – and it’s an Asus P8Z68-V motherboard; Intel Sandy Bridge i7 2600K 4 core 3.4Ghz CPU with 16Gb DDR3. Graphics card is a GTX1050 2Gb and the soundcard an Asus Xonar DGX. Hard disks consist of the one holding the OS which I can swap in and out between different disks holding different OS’s via a front facing disk caddy. There are 3 x 2Tb storage disks and if I leave those connected the machine won’t boot. If I disconnect those 3 disks it will boot into whichever hard disk/OS is in the caddy. So in summary – can’t access Bios to change settings including Boot option as the Bios display overlaps screen and machine won’t boot unless only one disk is used. I’ve run out of ideas and wondered if anybody could suggest a possible solution? This is the machine, incidentally, I was talking about upgrading earlier this year but cash flow raised it’s ugly head and I had to postpone the upgrade. Now it looks though my hand may be forced. Interestingly, an Intel i5 CPU based sytem works out less expensive that a system based around the latest AMD range of CPUs which is a shame as I intended to use an AMD CPU this time around. [/QUOTE]
