I'll try, hoping that'll not restore to default my PC.
I'll edit with the result of the operation



EDIT: It worked! Thank you so much!!!

u can try this:
press start button, click on power options, hold shift key on your keyboard and press restart
it should soft restart into this:


then click on use device:

and select uefi: built-in efi shell

then keep pressing del/f2 key to enter bios (fast boot should be disabled by now until next reboot)

Unfortunately the PC is quite new, I don't have any other RAM pieces to put in, I run in a 2x8GB which will be expanded in a couple of years to a 4x8GB.

I really would like to change stuff so easy, but my PC is locked in a box to improve desktop's cable management. In order to change RAM slots, reset CMOS etc I have to completely disassemble my workstation and it's for this reason that I'm trying any possibile way in order to don't do it.

I've been thinking, if I find somewhere a PS/2 keyboard, would it power on immediately on POST to let me hit "f2" on time?

Clear the cmos...it's the only way to get back default settings and disable fast boot so you can access bios.]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2018 04:11:51 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7324&PID=43259&title=fastboot-too-fast#43259 <![CDATA["Fastboot" too fast : Black_Code, just...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7324&PID=43258&title=fastboot-too-fast#43258 Author: MisterJ

Black_Code,  just edited my last post - please see what you think.  Thanks for the W10 Restart test.  Enjoy, John.

Black_Code, here are the steps to do Restart to UEFI in W10:

Windows key I, then
  1. Select Update & security.  
  2. Select Recovery from the left menu.
  3. Click Restart Now under Advanced startup. ...
  4. Click Troubleshoot.
  5. Click Advanced options.
  6. Select UEFI Firmware Settings.
  7. Click Restart.

I just tried it on my TR and it worked fine.  It may not work for the same reasons as the ASRock one, but is worth a try while I continue to think.  I cannot tell you exactly why but I have seen the same on my previous X370 running an XMP.  It seems once the BIOS memory training needs to retry, it forgets about opening UEFI.  Get back to you soon.  Enjoy, John.


EDIT:  What is your installed memory and in what slots?  I am thinking of changing the memory to force UEFI to drop the XMP.  Do you have any other memory you could use?

Sorry about that, Black_Code.  Should be obvious even to me!  I am afraid you will loose any non-saved options in the BIOS if you use Clear CMOS.  I do not think it is W10 blocking your access.  I need to do some thinking and research and will get back soon.  Wanted to reply to delay the CMOS reset.  Enjoy, John.]]> Wed, 17 Jan 2018 03:33:54 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7324&PID=43252&title=fastboot-too-fast#43252 <![CDATA["Fastboot" too fast : So, CMOS reset for good...I would...]]> https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7324&PID=43243&title=fastboot-too-fast#43243 Author: Black_Code

So, CMOS reset for good...
I would lose any setting, including XMP profile, right?
