Okay, I tried the adaptor. It worked fine, but nothing was showing up on the moniter, so I turned off the computer and went in to check the monitor connection and the GPU coinnection. Then I went to try it again, and everything worked fine for a while. The motherboard loading screen came up, and as per on screen instructions I hit delete to run the BIOS setup. I saw it loading saying it detected my HD and Ram, and then the menu came up. After about a second or two, it shut itself off. What now?
