Just put together new system using AN9. Everything went pretty smooth, boots
fine to Windows XP and operates fine, very fast with 8800 video card. My
problem is I cannot get into bios area to make changes. It acts as though
the video card is not intializing till after Windows starts to load. The
screen is blank until then. Any ideas??

TIA Bill

Start hitting the key(s) to get into the bios as soon as you see the KB

lights flash on boot.

I figured it out. Feel a little stupid, I have my pc dual connected, one
goes to my regular monitor, one goes to my 40" Sony, it would show the boot
screen on the Sony, then switch to my regular monitor. All is cool.
