this is my components:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/app...39&sku=MBM-E7150-Q6600
ULTRA 600W powersupply
INTEL QUADC 2.4GHz Q6600 CPU
EVGA e-7150/630i nForce Socket 775 MB
OCZ 4096MB PC8000 DDR2 RAM
1- IDE harddrive connected to an adaptor to be plugged into SATA motherboard
1- SATA harddrive (500G)
so I plugged everything in, its powers on, shows various codes on motherboard& stops @ the 75 code which is for detect HDD
on monitor shows the Motherboard screen...
it doesnt use my USB keyboard/mouse so i got a pci port?(the ole school circle/hole one) and attatched that instead... keyboard powers on but i can not access anything....
thats where I am at.
im thikning im needing to get into the bios..

in the manual, the MB says something about doesnt actually have a video card? do I need one & would this be why its not getting anywhere. Im wondering if its just the motherboard is bonk or i didnt do something right.
mind you, its been over 7 years since i tried to build a computer so i lost all knowing of wth im doing... any type of help besides (bring it to bestbuy ) would be helpful, esp since Im ging to be getting a friend who builds puters to troubleshoot this...any tips/tricks for him to try?
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME! sorry for my troubles
