I have no way to tell what BIOS is installed because I can't even get anything to display on the monitor at all. Is there somewhere in the motherboard packaging that it would say which version of BIOS is installed?

Use another cpu and check in windows CPUZ it will show what version it is there. Generally all mobos are sent with the very first bios.

i know with the i7 980x in bios mine only says 4gb, but when in windows it sees the full 6 gb. Are you using 64bit windows??
