How to put BOIS in to default setting without the screen

plutonon14 · Apr 13, 2016

Hello
I changed Integrated graphic in to disable and now I can not see the screen if I plug monitor in to my motherboard and I think BOIS doesn't switch my graphic card so it won't display from it as well. thank you for any advice

Hi, try clearing the CMOS (unplug the power cord and remove the CMOS battery for a minute).

Thank you for replaying, I tried that solution but it didn't worked, not sure why but I will try again, I will expect the same thing. Could you suggest something else please?

If you remove the graphics card and connect the monitor to the motherboard, does it work?

It was working before I changed the setting, sorry it wasn't integrated graphic it was "Intel processor graphic", I put that as disable and now it's just a black screen

By clearing the CMOS (power cord unplugged), BIOS is set to default.

Oh ok I see, but do you have any idea how can I do so BIOS will detect my external graphic card? I have Gigabyte motherboard and BOIS version f3 and it's so confusing it's really hard to find any specific part in it.

Some Gigabyte motherboards have a "Clear CMOS Jumper" that will set the BIOS to default. Perhaps you are not leaving the battery out long enough. What specific motherboard do you have?

I have Gigabyte H81M-S2PV model

Yes that board has a Clear CMOS jumper. See this picture:

The jumper is on the lower left side of the picture, just to the left of the silver looking heat sink.

Your motherboard manual will describe the procedure, but it should be as simple as touching the 2 pins with a metal object for a few seconds. (Computer off and unplugged).

Thank you so much it worked, the BIOS went to default settings, but could you tell me how can I swatch so I can use my Nvidia Graphic card?

mjslakeridge · Apr 13, 2016

You are welcome! Was the Nvidia working at one time? Do you have the current drivers for it? I recently switched from integrated graphics to an old Nvidia card I had laying around. Turned off the computer (and unplugged it), installed the card, plugged my monitors into the card, and started up the computer. Windows took quite a long time to start up and show the display on the monitors (I guess it detected the new hardware and was searching for and installing new drivers).

Once the monitors were working, I went to the Nvidia website and got the most current driver and installed it. (Actually someone here on Tom's linked me to the correct location on Nvidia's site, because it was a "legacy" product, and I couldn't initially find it. I am on Windows 8 Professional, and that's how I got mine to work.

Well what happened was that my PSU died and I just replaced it. When I turned on I Noticed noticed that the PC uses some HD something graphics setting so I clicked on Nvidia application and it said that the Nvidia product was detected. Before that it was fine everything was working as it should.

mjslakeridge · Apr 13, 2016

I am not sure about that. Maybe when the old PSU died, it damaged the Nvidia card. Like I said above, if you connect the monitor to the Nvidia and reboot, Windows should detect it and install generic drivers for it. Do you have a different computer (friend's maybe) that you can test the Nvidia in?

I have a old computer but it couldn't handle the card, I got Nvidia GeForce GTX 970. The LEDs works form that graphic card when I turn the PC on and not sure if I can test it on my friends computer.

mjslakeridge · Apr 13, 2016

Now that we have solved the initial problem about the BOIS, perhaps you should start a new thread entitled "Computer doesn't recognize GPU" or something similar. Explain that you had a PSU go bad and had to be replaced. That way the thread may attract a different group of experts on Tom's that specialize in GPU issues, rather than BIOS issues. Then pick one of the responses here as the solution so this thread will be considered closed.
