HELP ME folks Pleeeze :confused:

On boot up it locks on the first screen (black with white lettering) It' the screen with Name of processor and "hit del for bios or hit f9 for set up. It will go no futher. I have rebooted UNpluged and hit Bios Reset.Still nothing changes. :wtf:

It will not recognize my USB or old fashoned plug in key board so if I try to get into BIOS or SAFE mode I can't. What to do? Recently I lost standby so I went in to BIOS and changed to S2 then went to power options and enabled hibernate. Everything seemed to be working OK. Also recently upgraded ATI drivers for my 1800XT.Seemed to be working fine also untle yesterday and I lost my active desktop. Reset some values on the X1800XT and everything ok again. Turned off last night and turned on again everything ok. Turned off for the night and then this morning the Bad!

Not even being able to get into BIOS is not a good sign, it's probably not software related.

I know you tried unplugging it, but try this.

1. Unplug PSU.
2. Unplug PSU from all internal components.
3. Remove all your expansion cards and memory.
4. Remove CMOS battery.
5. Let is sit for a few minutes.
6. Re-assemble everything.

May not work, but might as well try, unless someone has a better suggestion.

Thanks folks!! Reset CMOS and got into BIOS with a standerd key board then reset BIOS to factory defaults then redid Raid in BIOS, USB, and date and time and everything back to normal. Thanks Again.

Lol, I hate telling people that, because it's the first thing Dell makes you do when you call them, but sometimes it actually works
