Please help, pc not working after bios update

MazQuick · Apr 25, 2016

Hello there.

My mobo is MSI X99A SLI PLUS

Problem:
I wanted to update my mobo bios just like always. And this time I tried the m-flash option thru the click bios. After I selected the bios file it just restarted and did nothing for like 30 minutes. So I powered it off by holding the power button for few seconds. Then I started it again and here the problem began...

It doesn't react anymore. Keyboard and mouse don't get powered, screen says "no signal"...

I tried to switch to the second bios using the switch on the mobo but it's just the same.

Fans spin, everything looks like it's ok but nothing happens

Please help anyone

You should never update your bios unless there's a reason to do it.
Have you tried resetting it?

I tried clearing the cmos but it did nothing too.

Now I'm trying the battery way I will remove it for like 20 minutes.

Also should I then use the normal bios or try on the second (backup?) one.

MazQuick :

Try the backup bios.
While you have the cmos battery out keep pressing the power button for a while to clear all the current from the capacitors.

Unfortunately, battery way did not solve the problem. Pc starts and does nothing afterwards.

I don't know what to do now :/

Thread can be Locked, because I solved the problem.

How:
- It turned out to be the RAM problem. I had Quad-Channel setup of HyperX Savage DDR4 and this was the reason why it wasn't booting anymore. I removed one of these to make it Triple-Channel and it booted just fine.

So yeah, I will perform a complete check of RAM/DIMMs later today.
