Hi karic,

The manual for your particular motherboard is located on the intel website:
ftp://download.intel.com/design/moth...D3610502US.pdf (.PDF, Adobe Reader)

According to the manual, you will need to press "F8" during the POST (perhaps at the splash screen) to access the BIOS. Give it a shot

Thanks for the replies. I removed the cmos bat and let it sit for awhile and it reset itself. Simple and overlooked on my part.

Here is a link to the list of processors that board will support, check yours is on the list.

I will try and find a download for the user manual for you.


Edit ~ must learn to type faster Kareeser beat me to it.
