Set boot to CD
Enabled Keyboard
Enabled Mouse
Save and exit
Install Windows
Settings OK till naming PC,
Then Blank screen. No Signal
Changed GPU. No Signal
Removed HDD and reformatted.
Replaced , still no Bios, blank screen

One thing I forgot to mention, when its booted all fans run, CPU indicators show full set of lights, runs for abour 50 seconds then shuts off for about 5 secs then restarts, and continues this routine.
