First Boot Up And BIOS Setup

Before attempting the first boot up for your computer, you should check over your new build. Make sure all your components are installed properly. Your monitor, PC case, and speakers should all by connected to a power source in the wall. Switch these on, and then press the On button which should be located at the front of your PC case.The power light on the front of your PC should light up, you should also hear the whim of the CPU fan and any PSU fans, and also the hard drive spinning.
A few seconds later you should see some text being displayed on the monitor, and then eventually display something like "unable to load operating system". If this happens then the first boot up was a success
