Problem upon startup

[Indie]

Hi guys,

having a problem with one of my old PC's.

when starting up it gets stuck on the first screen, all that seems to be visible is a message saying "checking NVRAM. . " - seems to hold up here. never seen this before, can anybody shed any light?

i havnt tried anything to solving it yet, knowing me ill make it worse

i suspect it could have something to do with the graphics card? not sure i could be wrong!

how do i get to the bios from here?
