M1210 710M swap completed, need help

I completed the swap. powered up notebook, then no bios screen showed, screen had pixels all around it and garbled lines and got progressively brighter, then all of the sudden windows log on screen appeared. Normally I would not care, but I want to install Windows 7, I cannot do this if i cannot access the BIOS to change the boot sequence.

What should I do?

Yup..

I believe it goes into the setup screen, only because it does not boot into windows.

I did not swap out the inverter. According to the person who did it there was no need for this. And it does work except for the Boot screen. It seems to be getting progressively worse on boot, but as soon as windows starts, i get my mouse pointer then windows is started. The screen now gets progressively brighter with brown and black verticals lines down it until it is finished booting. This tells me there is something wrong with the way it boots?

Which mobo - Standard M1210
Which GPU - Go 7400
Which Inverter - Standard M1210
Which Display panel - AUO 3614 - B121EW03

I do not think the 710m inverter is compatible with the m1210

something new to add.

I hooked it up to an external monitor, and bios shows up perfectly, howeever, it shows natice lcd panel resolution of 0x0...

xps m1210 and 710m screen, I have seen m1210's on here with my model of lcd in them.

max resolution is native of lcd

any suggested software for edid info? I cannot find a good one.

Alright,
