Hi

Basically we have two pc's however my partners pc started getting a black screen. We tried his disk in my pc and it worked fine at first (we have narrowed it down to the gpu.. I hope... So have bought a new one which is arriving tomorrow)
. After another restart I noticed my motherboard did not do the usual beep and stayed on the bios screen at the start. Once I pressed any key on the keyboard it would beep and load into windows.

I tried to switch my disk back into it but it keeps doing it now.

It stays at the bios screen until I press any key in my keyboard and then loads as usual. This also means I'm actually unable to get into my bios as the del key only start the actual boot into the disk.

Any idea what is going in here???

Everything worked perfect before I switched disks... But even once my disk is back I get the same issue.

Thanks for any input!

By taking your disk out of the PC, you possibly changed the boot order of the machine so that it is looking for the OS on a dvd drive or possibly usb boot drive before the hard drive. When trying to boot from a dvd, you press a button to initiate the action, which proceeds to the next device to boot from when it does not detect an operating system on that device. You should also be able to proceed by waiting a minute or so instead of hitting any button when you turn it on.
You can go into the bios and change the boot order so the hard drive is first again.

What operating system is each disk running? You could try resetting your BIOS settings back to default and then making sure your hard drive is set for primary boot option.
