I'm trying to move my main hard drive partitions in my laptop (ASUS A55A with Windows 10 on). I think I messed up the setup. It doesn't hurt me much because usually I just wipe the USB and start over, but now even the BIOS menu won't show up when I boot. Neither a USB Win 7 nor a DVD does anything except make sounds. The laptop lights stay on or dim, but I can't see the ASUS logo at all. I tried removing the battery sometimes to get in, but that doesn't always work either. My plan is to enter BIOS, run a Win 10 installation from USB, format the drive with Windows 7's tool, and reinstall fresh, but I need the BIOS first. Can someone tell me why I can't see the BIOS? Also, taking out one or two pieces of RAM sometimes helps, but often it still doesn't work.

Yeah, I've already tried fixing this... I don't think the problem is with the display. As I mentioned, there were a few times where I could get into the bios or even onto the Windows installation disks, but once I restarted, it went back to black and I can't enter the BIOS or see the Asus logo at all.
