Motherboard not geting past MSI logo display - please help me if you can

Hello all
I have recently purchased a motherboard kit from a very respected retailer so all my components are compatible. It consisted of an MSI KT4V motherboard, an AMD Sempron 2600, a stick of 256MB DIMM, and a heatsink. I have installed them all as best to my knowledge but on booting up for the first time all I am getting is what looks to be an MSI logo screen. I have changed the jumper switches and tried other things but I am unable to get to the BIOS or anything.
Has anyone else had this problem or does anyone know of any methods I could take to try and resolve it ?
Thanks

Hello again.
First can I just say thanks to everyone who has posted a reply to me here. I have brought my motherboard manual in for any specifications that is needed, unfortunately my power supply is back at my flat but it came with a chassis I bought from a different company. I know it's 400w if that's any consolation.
Please understand that I am unable to get anywhere near BIOS - literally as soon as I power it up the power light comes on, you can hear the hard drives whirring, the DVD ROM spins, etc. but almost instantly an MSI logo is displayed on the screen and from there I can;t do anything. I am not given the chance to do anything before. Hitting Del does nothing, in fact the keyboard doesn;t even light up at all when I switch my computer on, almost as if it doesn;t recognise it or it doesn;t get as far as reading it or something. Surely there can;t be a problem with my graphics card as I'm guessing I wouldn't be able to see the dreaded MSI logo. I reseated most stuff like the RAM and swapped IDE cables etc. and that seems fine. I am really getting sick of seeing that infernal MSI logo screen !!

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

  • Got a problem with my Chatting-Room program, please help me if you can.

    There is one bug in the code (should be just one), but I couldn't find it, I even recoded the whole thing, after I recoded the code, the same problem seems still there. I just can't find where the problem is. So I hope someone here can help me, thank you very much.
    First, I made a Server and a Client. Server has 5 classes, and Client has 2 classes. My intention is that all the clients(running on other computers) will connect to the server (which is my laptop), and then they can communicate with each other. For example, if person A typed "Hello", person B and person C's computers will receive this message and display it.
    The problem is that several clients can connect to the server (My laptop), but if one person type something, other people won't receive the message, it's blank on their screens. Maybe there is a problem when server receiving the message. So this is the problem I want to solve.
    I have the code down there, here is a brife description what each class mainly does.
    First class of Server is for connecting client, this class is named Server. Everytime a client is connected, the Server class calls the second class to store the client's information (which is its IP address), the second class is named People.
    Third class is named Receiver, it is for receiving the massage from any one of the clients, then stores the message to a static field variable in Fourth class, fourth class is named Saying.
    Fifth class of Server is named Sender, it is for sending the massage to the client, that message is the one that stored in Saying.
    The First class of client is named Client, it prints any message that the server send to it.
    The Second class of client is named SendFromClient, it wait for user to type something, and then send the message to the server, so server's Receiver class hopefully will get it and store it to the field variable in the Saying class.
    Here is all the codes:

    thank you

    Back up all data to at least two different storage devices, if you haven't already done so. One backup is not enough to be safe. The backups can be made with Time Machine or with a mirroring tool such as "Carbon Copy Cloner." Preferably both.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume with the default options. This operation will destroy all data on the volume, so you had be better be sure of your backups. Quit Disk Utility and install OS X. When you reboot, you'll be prompted to go through the initial setup process. That’s when you transfer the data from one of your backups.
    Transfer only "Users" and "Settings" – not "Applications" or "Other files." Don't transfer the Guest account, if it was enabled on the old system. Test. If the problem is still there, the cause is external to the machine, or else you're dealing with a bug or a hardware fault.
    If the problem is resolved, reinstall your third-party software cautiously. Self-contained applications that install into the Applications folder by drag-and-drop or download from the App Store are safe. Anything that comes packaged as an installer or that prompts for an administrator password is suspect, and you must test thoroughly after reinstalling each such item to make sure you haven't restored the problem.

  • For my iphone 4S, people can hear me sometimes but i can't hear them. I am having a hard time making phone calls. Please help me if you can.

    I can't hear my callers but i hear them sometimes. It makes some weird cracking sound.

    Apple just announced new products.  It is ALWAYS busy this time of year.  You just have to deal with it.
    Alternatively, you can contact Apple Support and get assistance that way.  Worst case scenario, they'll require a $19 fee to troubleshoot your device over the phone, which is refunded if it turns out you have a hardware issue.
    Try them at https://getsupport.apple.com or 1-800-MYAPPLE and see if they can help.
    But also try this:
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Mail won't open - please help me if you can I'm feeling down .... and I do

    Hello everyone - never used this before so I don't know quite where it will arrive - BUT, HELP - my Mail program just will not load - I press the icon in the sidebar and it just hops and that's it! I hold the menue open and click 'open' and the same, just one frustrating hop. I did notice yesterday something odd - some mail in had one subject, and then when I opened it, it was the content from another sender. Have updated to 10.4.8 in the last week. My summary comment as simply 'aaaaaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhhh!!!!!' - and I have so much in various mailboxes which I need to access on a regular basis.
    Any ideas for a new boy who is somewhat challenged tech-wise????
    Thanks

    Hello DavidI.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows to try to identify the problem:
    1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that the Console application displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
    3. In the Finder, go to /Applications/, and try to open Mail by double-clicking on it. Look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. They may provide some clues as to what the problem is.
    In the meanwhile, take a look at the following article, in case this is a font issue:

  • URGENT PROBLEM: Please help me if you can :(

    i am developing a symptom sorter function in JSP and MySQL, where the flow of data is:
    Select pain type e.g Ear
    Select category e.g. Hearing Problems
    Checkbox selections
    fever
    cough
    tired
    sick
    A combination of these checkbox selections should take you to the appropriate result. e.g tick fever, sick and tired, then the symptoms should be displayed. NB You must have selected the pain type and category already.
    HJowever if u tick cough with the paintype and category selected then a messasge saying no symptom found should be displayed.
    My problem is the correct implementation method to use!
    The data is already stored in a database, with every possible outcome already worked out!
    I need to know
    1. Is it better if i put the data read from the db into an object and then put that object into a session? Where the jsp then gets the object and displays the results on a new page!
    If yes how do i do this?
    2. Is there another method of completing my task.
    Thanks again!

    The best way to accomplish this kind of view of the database is to follow the MVC Architecture. Just follow the following steps to display the appropriate view.
    1)send the detailes checked/selected from the jsp to the ControllerServlet (Form action to be routed to ControllerServlet).
    2)Write a Bean which takes the request object into the constructor and instantiate the same in ControllerServlet.
    3)In the Bean get all the parameters from the request using req.getParameter("PainTypr")...etc.
    4) check for the appropriate conditions based on the parameters obtained with existing database. and have a method in the bean to give the url back to the servlet. -- end of processing in Bean.
    5) Back to the ControllerServlet redirect the request to the "url" as obtained from the Bean using response.sendRedirect(url);
    6) if required write a Custom Tag to display the data in the desired format. which will be embeded in to the jsp that is displayed.
    Just go through any MVC prototype for a clear understanding.
    All the best
