You need to connect the switches to the motherboard, and what do you mean by the BIOS won't show up? Does the system turn on? If so, you need to give your video card supplemental power.

Also, I understand you have a situation here, but please post in the proper sub-forum.

Is your video card getting enough power? If it requires supplemental connectors, you must connect those.

Can you pull out your RAM and test a stick in each slot?
