I just built my new pc and whenever I start it up it goes straight to the bios screen what do I do?

 

Means you don't have any bootable devices.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Well could it be that I plugged my hard drive into the wrong place?

It could mean that your hard drive doesn't have an OS on it and you don't have a bootable device to install an OS with.

No I took my hard drive from my old pc and it had windows 10 on it 

 

First: this often doesn't work properly. But Windows 10 seems to have made this much easier to do. Just be prepared to have to enter your Windows key again.

 

Second: OK, make it the first device your motherboard boots into in your BIOS.

I tried it didn't work and when I go to storage it says there are no devices plugged into the sata port

Did you plug SATA power AND SATA data into your hard drive?
