Cant get into bios b350 tomahawk

Cant get into bios

Specs:
Ryzen 5 1600 gonna upgrade after gpu (maybe)
8gb g skill ram
750 ti gonna upgrade to 1070 ti or 1080
Msi b350 tomahawk

I got all my parts new except for the mother board, ram, and gpu.
I had my ram and gpu in a previous build and they were working fine. When i try to turn on the computer it goes straight onto a screen that says reboot off of selected boot device or something like that. And when i plugged in my windows 10 installer usb it goes to that. When i press del a bunch of times it just goes to a screen with a _ flashing and nothing else. Also the vga led is turned on, on the mother board. Any solutions other than cmos reset as i dont have a jumper.

Would you get to the bios interface if you boot with no drives or USB sticks attached to your mobo?

No it goes straight to a black screen with a dash (-) in the top left

- Try hitting your motherboard dedicated bios keyboard shortcut quickly as soon as you boot your PC.
- Try switching your display cable from your GPU to your iGPU (motherboard integrated display output ports) or the other way around and reboot.

Done all of that before but it only goes to a black screen. Anyway i can enter it off of the windows trouble shoot page where it says uefi settings and comand prompt etc.

Since you're able to get to Bios through windows means you still have a drive attached to your board ! and you might be hitting the wrong keyboard shortcut or your Bios is set to ultra fast boot

I have removed it and tried sorry for the confusion, i meant i am able to get through to the windows 10 installer but when it is not in i am not able to get to anything. If i go buy a jumper cap would that fix the issue?

Sorry, missed the title lol, try using different display cable /Port especially if you're using display port, if your keyboard is USB one try switching it to a different USB port.

Keeps on booting up and says "reboot and select proper boot device" which i know how to do but not able to as i cant enter bios or boot option

Try F11 as soon as PC is started >for boot device menu while
If your keyboard is USB one try switching it to a different USB port or better if you have a PS2 keyboard give it a try.

MSI B350 Tomahawk stuck on "VGA" EZ Debug LED, help?
http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3408162/msi-b350-tomahawk-stuck-vga-debug-led.html

I would try switching around ram modules and/or booting of mobo VGA after removing GPU, turning off completely PC/disconnecting wall power between attempts.

Reset cmos by removing the battery. Unplug from wall. Hold down power button for 20 seconds. Pull out battery. Count to 60+. Reinstall.

What gets me is the jumper. If that board is typical like most other boards with a 3pin cmos reset, there should be a jumper on 1-2 leaving 3 blank. To reset cmos, you move the jumper to 2-3, count to 10, move the jumper back to 1-2. Then restart the pc.

You said remove twice what exactly do you mean? Remove unplug from wall put it in then remove and reinstall? Also its a two pin

I'd call msi support first. They might know something about this issue you are having and if they can't solve it, they'll probably tell you to rma through the vendor you got the mobo from.

Did it multiple times but it wont reset

you can carefully use a metal tip to short jumper instead of jumper cap if not available.
