Hello. I was assembling a socket A system and was doing some troubleshooting. Turned out my first athlon 3200+ was faulty. Luckily I had 2. Popped in the second and boom, it posted. (CPU shows incorrectly I think since the fsb is set improperly by default)
As I only had 1 stick of ram in for testing and wanted to install the rest now, I needed to shut the PC off. Because my screwdriver was having issues bridging the power pins (painted) I decided to do the lazy thing and just yank the power cable from my PSU. This has never really been an issue before but apparently it corrupted my bios.
I'm stuck here. No USB power nor PS2 power. Can't go anywhere.

How do I fix this? I don't have an idea floppy drive. I have a USB one, but there is no power to USB at this point.
Do I need a floppy? Any other solution?
