Hi, today i bought a new mobo, cpu and psu to upgrade my pc. I plugged in everything correctly into the mobo and the computer starts fine.

It shows the gigabyte screen where you have the options to enter the BIOS etc but my keyboard will not work - i press the DEL key as instructed to enter the BIOS setup but it is unresponsive. After this, I am not led to a black screen with a mouse cursor which is unresponsive. I can't load windows or anything.

Any ideas?

Did you set your hdd (or ssd) as the boot drive?

Sounds like it's posting but just not loading windows.

Hi, how would I do this? Previously the HDD was the boot drive but as I can't use my keyboard for whatever reason I can't check to see if it is still set as the boot drive.

Read your motherboard manual. Which you should've done before putting these in your pc.
