Alright- So I'm building a computer for a friend, and I've encountered an issue I've never stumbled across before. The drat thing won't boot into a GRUB//OS unless I go directly into the BIOS//Boot Manager and tell it what to boot to. The Hard Drive is in port 0, and the motherboard is at default settings; it has Windows 7 and ubuntu on it.

Is there a setting I flipped or need to flip? Something else? It just....won't boot unless I tell it what to do. It won't go past the motherboard logo screen if i leave it alone.

I've built 4 computers and this never happened. :sigh:

More Info: The MOBO and the Video Card are brand new. The HDD, RAM, and Power Supply were preexisting. The HDD has been reformatted and the OS's are New.
