x370 killer Sli "Can't get into bios"

im guessing your in fast boot mode are you in windows 10 ? if so heres a guide to enable you would do the same to disable https://www.howtogeek.com/243901/the-pros-and-cons-of-windows-10s-fast-startup-mode/

Hibernation is not the same as the Windows Fast Startup feature. Those two features are configured with different settings.

Regardless, Windows Fast Startup should not prevent you from getting into the BIOS using the Del key.

Why that is happening to you, I don't know. That the Restart to UEFI program does not work is strange, that always works for me... but I don't have your board.

I would suggest a UEFI/BIOS update, but I would wait a while until the Instant Flash BIOS update version is posted.

Is your memory running at 3000 now?

Do the power and reset buttons work fine now? Check the connections and polarity of the cables from the PC case buttons to the front panel header.

Okay i can boot into the bios everytime now. (Removed 1 ramstick) but i am having some difficulties updating to the latest bios 1.60 (stable) currently on 1.30 (no wonder that i have issues) anyway i tried the windows method with the .exe but that just boots me into the bios even tho it states that it needs to restart.

Thanks for trying to help, but the guide in your link is for creating a bootable floppy disk in Windows 98?!

The formatting dialog box shown is not like the one currently used in modern versions of Windows. It also does not show the formatting type required for the bootable USB flash drive, FAT32. For someone that is not familiar with the process, it will not be helpful creating a bootable USB flash drive.

Flakfired, this is a link to the ASRock DOS UEFI/BIOS update guide:

You may be wondering about creating a bootable USB flash drive. Google, etc, is your friend, you can search on "create bootable usb flash drive", and you'll get more results than you'll ever need.

One such tool is called Rufus:

You'll need to read a bit to learn how to use it, but that is not difficult. The rest is covered in the ASRock guide in the first link.

If you have questions, let us know. Whenever performing a UEFI/BIOS update, if you have a problem, the main thing NOT TO DO is turn off the power to the PC! You can restart the PC, but do not shut it off.
