New system doesn't even get to Bios

   I forgot to mention. I did buy a usb/ps2 adaptor but it didn't appear to work. Which I'm not sure if that's the adaptor or some bios setting.

	Ok, I've been looking in to this. The problem is Windows says it's unable to boot Windows. So I can't actually get in without repairing the install. Which I can't do with sub peripherals it seems.

	Windows 7? You need to follow these instructions: http://www.asrock.com/microsite/win7install/ This is a known issue that comes from the fact that windows 7 has no native USB 3 support. The USB 2 ports on intel 100 series boards (and AM4) and newer operate on a USB 3 controller and so require a USB 3 driver.

	It might be best if I start a new thread, but I've a new issue now :( The mouse and keyboard work in the bios but not in Windows itself. I'm trying both usb 2 and 3 ports. Has this come up before?

	That's foolish of me, I just saw the HDMI port and assumed! That fixed it, I feel like such a Muppet!

	Ryzen does not have an iGPU so you will need your graphics card installed. The display output on the board is there for if you are using an APU so is not functional with a Ryzen CPU installed. Could you list your RAM brand and model number for us please. The most common issue with the Ryzen platform is RAM incompatibility. Install your GPU, CPU and 1 module of RAM in slot A2. Make sure you have the correct 8pin CPU power and 24 pin connector properly seated and try to power on the system. If that fails try the other RAM module in slot A2. Failing that clear CMOS and try again. Clear CMOS using this method: http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=630&title=how-to-clear-cmos-via-battery-removal If none of this works post back.

	And following on from that, I'm afraid I've long since lost my motherboard speaker. I've tried with both 1 and two sticks in and at this point I'm certain everything is plugged in as it should be.
