Check GPU. If you can then swap for another video card and try again. Also if possible re-check your display and display cables and connections.
I think these should be fist things to try to eliminate from causing the problem.

You say that you have all the cables inserted but do you have all these:

24 pin and 8 pin to motherboard ?

6 pin and 8 pin to graphics card ?

What PSU are you using ?

What outlet port are you using on the GPU ?

You didn't mention if both the power cables are attached to the GPU ?

What PCIE slot have you got the card inserted in ?

Is the BIOS set to that slot as Primary Display Device ?

Is it set to PEG or PCIE ?

Are you using a native cable or an adapter ?

Hello crownpiyush,

Post your system OS and Hardware parameters in your signature block using the option in members profile for this Forum. . It will make it much easier for us to help you. Use DM and I signature block as benchmarks.

Give us more insights into your problem? Is this a brand new computer system? Are all commponents and devices new? Have you ever been able to successfully boot to BIOS with it?

If you have not done so try your video card in both PCI-E slots?

Your motherboard has onboard graphics. The picture in BIOS section of your manual seems to have it defaulted to auto. Suggest you remove the video card and try connecting your onboard video to your monitor using the rear motherboard HDMI connection? You may need an adapter to do so.

Good Luck,

So have you tried replacing the graphics card now after making sure that it is set as the default device in the BIOS ? It should work then hopefully.

You're welcome and great news,

Make sure that you update your motherboard BIOS to the latest BIOS if needed.Do not use BIOS Beta version for now just full releases  If the Video card test suggested by DM does not work, try that video card in another PC system.

Good luck,

Hello crownpiyush,

It is recommend to Update your BIOS only if there is something positive for you to gain from the update. (Example: You have check your video card in another computer and it works fine but it refuses to work in your own system even after disabling onboard BIOS and selecting PCI-e as the Graphics card BIOS boot option. If a new BIOS exist, installing it could possibly resolve that issue.) Do not try to fix something that ain't broken...!  If your computer meets your expectations, than leave it alone and enjoy it. Remember that the onboard video is fine for 2D operations. If you intend to play games or view HD videos you will have to get your Video Card back into your sysyem to do so.

I cannot assess your boot time unless unless you post your system particulars in you signature block as requested earlier. Give actual boot times not feelings. Your Seagate Hard drive will be fine in either one SATA ports. Both SATA ports can handle more than its max output. Also I suggest that you be specific when you talk about a device, give common name and part number. Check the seagate website for a possible firmware update for your hard drive. Remember to backup your hard drive before applying any firmware update to it.

There maybe one explanation for your longer than expected boot time. You appear to have selected some RAID options in BIOS and you appear to have only one hardrive. Your BIOS and your RAID driver may be looking for a RAID array during the Boot sequence. Make sure that Full Logo boot option is disabled so that you can see the various BIOS screens during the Boot process. Watch at the top of the second or third boot page for something about RAID or locating a RAID array. If you do have only one hard drive turn RAID off and Select IDE mode.

You should also enable the Quick Boot option in BIOS.

Cheers...
