I have had an HP a6109n rig for a little over a year now. The initial screen splash says "F10 to enter setup". When I do this, it says "...entering setup", then the splash screen goes away, and the screen stays black and there is no hard drive activity or anything.


If I let the machine boot normally, it goes into Windows just fine.

I tried the jumpers to reset the CMOS settings and password, but I still cannot get into the bios.


Any ideas why it is all the sudden doing this??
