Re: How to setup
By NEW is it a factory build or did you build it new? It sounds like you built it and it needs to know what hardware you have like the type of HD (EIDE, SATA) which has to be set in the bios. Be sure to save any changes when closing the bios. Once the HD is identified it should boot to it. Set the bios to disbale FAST BOOT so that you can monitor the bios screens. You might also have to disable the Logo screen. You can hold a screen by using the pause/break key to study the configuration it is or isn't detecting. Look to see if you primary HD is listed as primary and not on secondary. If it is on secondary move the cable to the primary or '0' connector. Also double check your HD jumper setting. Hit enter to resume the boot.
