Dear Community, greetings from Milan, Italy . I need your support for a current issue (or strange behaviour) I am currently facing with my X99 Extreme 4 motherboard.
Workstation is Xeon processor, DDR4 ECC RAM and 1x Quadro GPU + 1x Tesla GPU.Power supply is 1kW Corsair and I have RAID1 HDD (2x 1TB). The workstation has been working perfectly and I was used to see the ASRock logo at boot-up, especially the "press F2 or F8" text (in order to access BIOS).
I had then to enable 4G decoding within BIOS parameters. The computer is still working perfectly BUT I don't see any ASROCK logo any more and I have now no means to access the BIOS, even if I press F2 or other keys. This is important for me not only for configuration purposes but also for FAN speed.
Questions: 1) how can I access the BIOS again ? 2) If I reset the motherboard, will I loose the RAID1 configuration and data within ? 3) If I use the backup bios to recover the operational one, will I loose the RAID1 configuration and data within ?
Your support will be highly appreciated.
Cheers !

I am in the middle of a similar issue. I downloaded asrock app to "boot to uefi" which did work, .... but i could not navigae using either the mouse or the keyboard. I bought a wired keyboard, which did not help. I just bought a wired mouse and I will try that. I went on vacation and left my problems behind. When I return I will continue. If that does not work I will switch to the "b" bios.
