Short version: Tried to update bios, screen went blank when it was scanning for update packages and now Dr Debug is displaying "A6". Afraid to turn off my PC.
I was stupid and decided I wanted to "update" my bios to the version offered on this page. I say stupid because I was almost certainly already on that version, seeing as it was released in 2013 and I last updated my bios last year.
I loaded the zip onto a FAT32 flash drive, plugged it into a USB slot, rebooted into the bios configuration and chose the Instant Flash option. I saw it begin to display different directory paths in rapid succession for barely a second before the screen suddenly went blank. I believe the bios update was still scanning and didn't even initiate, because I didn't interact with the menu at all after I clicked the instant flash option.
I tried plugging an HDMI cord into the onboard display adapter, thinking it had defaulted to it, but no luck. My monitor is still getting a signal from my graphics card over DisplayPort, but obviously my graphics card has nothing to show.
Dr debug is showing the error code "A6", which my manual labels as "SCSI Detect".
Any and all help would be appreciated!
