Ideas?

It powers up when the power button is pressed but no image ever shows on the screen. The post indicator reads "FF" which translates into "boot". So that doesn't tell me anything.

Also, the power indicators on the case don't light up.

When I press the power button again after starting it up, it won't power down and I have to hold the button until it shuts off.

Everything is seated well and all of the power cables are installed. The only thing I can figure is that the video card is too "high end" and it won't display boot/dos info until a driver is loaded.

Do I have to boot up with a cheap, low end card to set up the bios?

Thanks for any insight.
