Did you reload the OS on to the HD? You can't just re-use the old HD with the OS on it as is, it needs to be installed from a fresh install. You gave no clue if that was done. If you're using the old HD with the previous install of the OS, it won't acknowledge anything new or it will do as you've described.
As for the bios, you can load the latest rev. level for your model mtrbd. provided you goto the mtrbd. support website. Find the latest bios update and install "per instructions". Don't do this if you're not sure of the process. However, don't do this until you've checked my first info.

Hi to everyone, im new on this so dont be mad at me. I just bought a A960M-M3 ecs Elitegroup Motherboard whit a Fx6100 AMD and 8gb of corsair vengeance ddr3, i have my old Hard drive Western digital caviar blue, a 400w psu coolermaster elite. Gpu radeon hd 2600pro. I replaced the old whit the new stuff and couldnt pass the "Windows" Black loading screen, throws me back into the Bios over and over, tried that like 10 times and after that the system didnt even boot the bios, just a black screen (i check everything EVERYITHING is running, conected and ready to be used) I read on some forums that the BIOS have a old firmware for the cpu BUT no one shows a straigh answer, there is a way to fix this? PS: sorry about my english, n ot my native language.
