You plugged in a 2nd HDD internally or externally (usb?)?

Internally

I would connect to integrated GPU to see if the default was changed due to the 'shock' of plugging in of the drive while the system was on. If you even have integrated graphics. Perhaps just changing the primjary adapter back to peg or pcie will correct the issue.

Otherwise follow the steps in the sticky: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/261145-31-perform-steps-posting-post-boot-video-problems
