Does the Steel Legend have the right BIOS? I already have all of the parts in my list. I currently have The ASROCK B450M Pro4 and nothing works. My computer doesn't come on or do anything(no lights fans nothing, not even for a second). After some troubleshooting I found Its the BIOS. I've never messed with the BIOS so I figured id just get a new Motherboard. 

 

After this I'm kind of skeptical about ASROCK... Will the Steel Legend have the same problem...?
