this is a weird thing. For the life of me I cannot get the damn thing to get to bios or boot up. i see a blank screen no video. But when I remove the jumper I am able to boot up and see the screen but not access the bios because of the jumper. What am I doing wrong?. Is there a way to get to the bios and get video display?. seems like adding the jumper is screwing up the whole system from booting. |

Well the jumper is needed to be able to access the bios. Myself I use a ps2 keyboard and it works fine. If you are using a usb keyboard try a different usb port. One of the ports in the back is a bootable usb. Meaning it is powered on boot. That may be the issue. |

thanks for the reply ruben. you wont believe it after 5 or 6 attempts of positioning in different ways shorting 1 and not both pins and then finally shorting both actually got me to the bios. now riddle of the day, to enable speed stepping so i can drop in a dual core e8600 without any issues |

It could have been just some crap built up on the pins and you finally rubbed it off and got a good connection. |

After looking at this, it appears as though I need to connect pins 3 & 4 to each other to enable bios. http://www.xodustech.com/guides/hp-medi ... 5-vga-bios Can anyone confirm this, before I try it? |

I connected pinout 3 and 4 on my x490, and I was able to access bios |
