Oh NO!
As I mentioned, I got it up and running, with windows10 working fine.

So I had to change some setting in BIOS (secure boot) to enable the update to windows11.
When I updated the BIOS and reboot I was back to start - no display, no bleeps.

I've cleared/reset BIOS, but still nothing
Now I really am tearing my hair out.

The only suggestion I have is to repeat the clear CMOS steps I linked before. 10
mins should be enough, I stipulated longer in the guide because it's meant to be
a 100% foolproof option. If 10 mins doesn't work you can repeat for a longer period.

This is why I never update the BIOS on a working system. I only upgrade when I need
to for hardware support.

I've been building computers for many year (since 1979 -UK101 - look it up) and this is the worst set of problems I have ever had.

Turns out that the monitor has a dodgy DP input (I'm using my own 2nd monitor) HDMI is fine.

?‹So got up windows. However - big however.


1) To update to win11, I need secure boot. I go through the process described by yourselves - https://www.asrock.com/support/faq.asp?id=531

2) But then the system just continually boots to BIOS. and the boot priority list has disappeared.


The only way I can get it to boot to windows is to clear/rest bios, but then I am back to step 1 !!

What is going on?
