Windows 10: Pc won’t launch and cannot open bios settings, stuck on motherboard screen

I have a random issue with my pc that does not allow me to open my bios setting and it does not launch, I am stuck on a screen that says to “press del or f2 to enter bios setting” I have tried many different solutions like removing the cmos battery, trying different keyboards to open the bios, removing other ssd drivers and only having my boot driver open and reseting multiple times I’m not sure why this issue happened but any other solutions will help, thanks

Choice of memory and motherboard... a bit stuck...

No one who got some suggestions on this one, huh?

I've found out that the Asus M3A78-T needs to be flashed, so then that motherboard is excluded from my list. Which motherboard and memory should I then go for? Any suggestions?

 

Stuck on Bios- custom PC - quick re-build ques  

There is an updated UEFI Bios for this motherboard... but it's still listed as Beta and requires a complete clearout of the the previous Bios.

As the OP is still on "Small Steps" I think it would be prudent to let this pass... *Wink

Use USB 1.1/2.0 port

 

My pc will only turn onto the bios settings

If your PC is only turning on to the BIOS settings and you are unable to boot into Windows, it may be due to a hardware issue or a problem with the operating system. Here are some steps you can take to try and fix the issue:

1. Check the boot order in BIOS:
   

• Enter the BIOS settings by pressing the appropriate key (usually F2 or Del) during startup.
  
• Look for the "Boot" or "Boot Order" section and ensure that the hard drive or SSD that contains the operating system is set as the first boot device.
  
• Save any changes and exit the BIOS.
  

1. Check for loose connections:
   

• Turn off your PC and unplug it from the power source.
  
• Open up the PC case and check all connections between components (such as the hard drive or SSD and the motherboard) to ensure they are properly seated.
  
• Close the PC case, plug it back in, and turn it on to see if the issue is resolved.
  

1. Perform a startup repair:
   

• Use the Windows installation media (such as a USB drive or DVD) to boot into the advanced options screen.
  
• Select "Startup Repair" and follow the prompts to attempt to repair any issues with the Windows operating system.
  

1. Reinstall Windows:
   

• Use the Windows installation media to perform a fresh install of the operating system.
  
• Note that this will erase all data on the hard drive or SSD, so make sure to backup any important files beforehand.
  

If none of these steps solve the issue and you continue to see the "no bootable device detected" message, it may be due to a hardware failure such as a faulty hard drive or SSD. In that case, you may need to replace the failing component or seek professional assistance.
