New case with a new Gigabyte 970A-UD3P motherboard and a New AMD FX 8-Core Processor Black Edition 3.5 GHz 16.0 MB Cache Ballistix 8GB Elite - 1866 Ram
MSI Twin Frozr Gaming GEFORCE GTX 760 video Card in a new ultra Z11 tower. I have 2 HDD and a DVD/R CDR-w drives. I have removed batter with Power cord to clear BIOS. On boot my Monitor wakes but I get nothing. Have tried just HDD into SATA, All plugged in and numerous reboots with Win 7 disk in drive. All fans work and all plugs tight. Tried holding Del and F2 during power up but get nothing. Help please

Switch the dualbios switch to the other BIOS and see what that does. If that doesn't work, short the clear CMOS jumper, not the battery.

it sounds like your operating system on your hard drive was from another machine? cant do that due to chipset and other driver issues.it almost never works.you will need to do a clean install of windows.backup any data you need from your hdd on another machine,wipe it and do a fresh install of windows.

There is no version of 7 called "windows 7 Ultra". Ultimate.

But what you describe still leaves me a little confused.
No BIOS with your install DVD, and it works with a different install DVD?

Your Right No Windows 7 Ultra its Ultimate and it worked. Now its booting fine and I'm reinstalling stuff back on it. I keep getting message that its NOT GENUINE. Can i use my key to make it right? Also I want to use my other HDD. What do I need to remove from it so I can keep most of my stuff on it as a second drive? It had windows on it and I don't want it to cause any conflicts.
PS I purchased an MSI GT750 Video card . I get the error on my screen that says Digital out of range. Does this mean my OLD monitor cant handle the card? Do I need a new monitor? If so what do I need?

That depends. Where did you get this Windows install?
