I have Asus m11bb. A10 Apu 8gb of ram. I just bought an amd r7 260x gpu and 750w psu to make sure I could run the gpu. Well now that I installed them my pic doest seem to want to work. I start up the pc as usual and it does the Asus start screen, but since the install it just says, "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in boot device and press key". And for some strange reason I can't access the bios. I go to press f2 or delete and the screen just goes black. Please help
Installed psu and gpu and now I can't enter bios or start windows.

Yeah I'm not entirely sure, but I think you might be right about the static charge of some sort. But how do I know if it has to do with the mother board or hdd? I put the old psu back in and it did the same thing. So I guess I <<edited for inappropriate language>> something up 
I am 99% sure its the mobo. Somehow it stopped working. Maybe a wrong connection and some capacitors are out.
If the HDD was the culprit, you should be able to access BIOS. If its the PSU, your old one should have worked. If it was the RAM, you wouldn't get the ASUS flash screen. So I would say its the Mobo.
Btw what make and model of that PSU? You may have to go to a computer repair shop if you do not have access to another motherboard/system...

Do you have a live CD (Linux/windows) or boot media(USB) from which you can try to boot?
You should be able to access BIOS at least. Please check if all the power connectors are properly fitted and RAM/GPU is seated properly.

Do you have another computer that you can hook your HDD up as a slave and see if you can access it?
At this point the only problems that I can imagine is 1. a problem with your HDD 2. a problem with your SATA controller on your Mobo 3. a problem with your SATA cables power delivery from your PSU 4. Static or electric discharge to your mobo when your were in there touching stuff.

I am not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. All I can tell you is what I would do and that is systematically troubleshooting each component until I found the problem. The fact that the problem just manifested itself after the upgrade points to the possibility that something was changed during that process and that would be the easiest place to start troubleshooting. Backtracking is a PITA but Iv'e messed with PCs for hours until I was ready to kick them across the room only to check the RAM for th efourth time and discover that it wasn't seated properly after all.

That's a decent power supply. I am sorry, but your best bet is to take your system to a computer repair shop. They will be able to identify the defective component and if there is any short/wrong connection or power supply malfunction.
Wish you all the best. I hope your PC will be up and running soon.
