Oh no...
Just went from J3455-ITX BIOS 1.4 to 1.5 without problems.
Then used winflash to go to 1.6, after flash complete and reboot, no more video output Cry
Took the battery out, waited, nothing.

I wish ASRock would stop producing BIOSes that can be flashed within Windows.

DOS or Instant Flash. PERIOD.

Same problem with J4205. Updated from 1.3 to 1.5=> no problem. Updated from 1.5 to 1.6 no image on HDMI or VGA. Didn't remove battery because i read that BIOS jumper or battery should not be removed after BIOS update.
Does anybody know a solution to make it work again?
I did BIOS update because the mouse was lagging in BIOS and in Windows 10.
I wish i didn't....

Tried Xaltar BIOS reset by removing battery (waited 15 minutes) but nothing happened.
As previous user posted, i also used Windows boot upgrade method and the update ended sucessfuly (noooot)...
I will give another try to BIOS clear by battery removal and wait 'till tomorrow.
Hope that works ?˜¢

i think clear cmos or remove the battery dosen't work. That procedure is to reset the changes made to bios setting, no "clear" the bios. But i hope to be wrong

After 10 hours of clear BIOS and battery removed, no succes in starting anything...
I wish someone from Asrock tech support tell what to do with a less than 10 hours usage. A sucessfull BIOS update = failed BIOS update.
