    I cannot boot to UEFI any more, I always end on Windows login screen


    Hello,

    My PC behaves unexpectedly. I want to enter UEFI, but when I boot up my PC the screen stays black until the Windows login screen is reached. I cannot enter UEFI with any trick known to me.

    Things already tried:

    • Pressing/Holding DEL, F1, F2, F8 during startup
    • Special shutdown through start menu, troubleshooting, " UEFI Firmware settings"
    • admin command line shutdown /r /fw /t 0
    • EZ Update in AI Suite 3 to update the UEFI bios, which forces a reset
    • Turning off fast boot in the power button settings

    The system is a Ryzen 9 3950X on an Asus ROG Crossfire VIII Hero Wifi, with 32GB Corsair RAM, Asus RTX 2080 Ti as GPU, boot drive are two SSD in software raid.

    This worked before, the problem must have evolved in the last two months (I do not reboot that often)

    Any more ideas how the force a system into UEFI - or at least show me a boot splash screen?

    Trouble installing windows 7 on RAID in UEFI

    As the title says, I'm trying to install Windows on a RAID array in uefi on my Maximus V Formula. When using legacy ROM I can install just fine but I go into CSM and change settings to UEFI only, I can build the array in the UEFI Raid driver (IRST tab in "BIOS") but the array does not show up in the boot menu and when I try to install windows (boot from UEFI DVD drive), The drive does not show up in the Windows install. The next thing I tried was to enable UEFI and legacy oprom in CSM, boot from UEFI DVD drive and install to the RAID array (probably detected by legacy oprom) and it will install. After first reboot, Windows Boot manager will show up as an option in the BIOS boot menu so I set that as first boot device and reboot. I will get to the starting windows screen and then BSOD (too quick to get codes) The last thing I tried was Changing to legacy mode and installing windows to a different drive. once installed, I initialized the Raid array as GPT and rebooted, changed csm back to UEFI only but they RAID array still doesn't show in the boot device list so I repeated the earlier process hoping that It might work because I had initialized as GPT but it still BSODs on starting windows screen. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    I think you were on track with your first try. Windows installer probably needs the RAID driver in order to detect it on install.
