<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Hey folks,</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">New member here... Thanks in advance for your help. I've tried to summarize as best I could:</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue""><br>
</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Issue:</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Turn on power button. Initial start sequence sounds good, but screen still shows black (no bios view)</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Turn power button off.<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Now comes the weird part - turn the power source off, then onpush front power button on, and things startup as expected.</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Restart PC immediately, no problem (starts as expected).<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Turn off PC, wait 24 hours, then the initial problem starts all over again</p>
<p class="x_p1" style="margin:0px; font:13px "Helvetica Neue"">Specs:</p>
