So I rebooted the pc after making changes and turned it off and turned it on to get into bios. I was prompted with my password but after I went into password prompt, the pc locked up and I have a debug code; A8
I cant do anything, cant turn it off via button or restart button. Its stuck on BIOS logo screen with password prompt.
Here are my specs:
Core I5 6600k@ 4.2 Ghz
MSI z170 Gaming m5. with latest BIOS firmware.
16 Gb of Corsair DDR4 ram at stock speed.
Windows 10 all updated.
I have recently installed windows on this machine cause of windows 10 getting corrupted from windows related crashes.
so its a nearly-new fresh install, And yes I did go into BIOS setting and hit f10, rebooted back into the BIOS and when I was prompted with password, it froze, It didnt do that first time until I made changes to the BIOS settings and booted back into BIOS. And now I cant get into BIOS to make changes again until I type in the password. Idk what happened. Did the password prompt cause it to lock up or was it cause of a BIOS setting I made? but more importantly what do I do? Do I unplug the machine or try to turn it off at the switch one more time? Cause I hit both buttons and even held down the power button for hard reset and nothing happened. What do I do?
