After installing a new graphics card I can't access the bios anymore and the splash screen stays on for longer. Windows boots normally after the splash screen disappears. When I put my old graphics card back in, the bios splash screen stays on for a shorter amount of time and I can access the BIOS.
Specs:
Nvidia GTX 960
Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H
12GB DDR3 RAM
Intel I5 3570K

Hi azzielol, I have the same exact problem (GA-Z77-D3H MOBO, new GTX 970, 4 long beeps, can't access BIOS, then it boots normally). I have never updated the BIOS, so it scares me a bit. I know the damage screwing it up can do. This is where I am at...

I went out to Gigabyte's website and found the BIOS download. I opted for the F22 update (the latest "non-beta" one). It contained 3 files: an autoexec, Efiflash, and Z77D3H.F22. I am not sure where to go from here. How do I go about using/installing them? The QFlash utility doesn't seem to be an option because I can't even get into the BIOS. It doesn't help that I just updated to Windows 10 from 7, which makes everything in the Windows menus a bit disorienting. I was hoping you could shed some light on the matter so I don't accidentally destroy my PC. Thanks in advance
