No bios details on bootup

I loaded MCE 2005 on a little while ago and didn't have a problem accessing the bios after the install. Suddenly, my monitor isn't being initialized until the Windows logon screen appears and I no longer can view or enter the bios details during the bootup process. The pc seems run fine once Windows loads up. I just can't get into the bios anymore. Anyone heard of this problem before?
 
I had this problem on a SFF build. The BIOS info wouldn't show up if I was using the DVI connector. I had to plug into the DB15 connector to see the bootup screen. This was with a Chaintech GF5900XT video card. I tried another video card and everything worked fine.

Both. I can't see the bios detials like I use to and when I do hit delete, the pc may be going into the bios but the screen remains in hibernate mode. The screen only initializes when the Windows logo gets displayed.
 
Some LCDs have a problem where they can't show the motherboard's video mode in DVI unless the video card scales it.
