If you are using HDMI check your connections on the card and monitor.

I found a same problem here,maybe you can try.

"AE" apparently is a UEFI code meaning "Legacy Boot Event".

Why this wasn't listed in the Biostar manual I have no idea.

Legacy Boot Event apparently means "can't find a boot device".

Of course, I could have avoided all of this pain if I had just plugged the monitor in...

New monitor, didn't register the lack of any LEDs or anything indicating it was in "plugged in but powered off" mode.

Anyway, code "AE" shows up when the BIOS is showing "Cannot find boot device" on the monitor. I just hit DEL and changed the first boot device to the DVD drive, and the Windows installation started right up.


I'm going to leave this here as a testament to the #1 rule of debugging: "is it plugged in?"
