Week ago while playing a game I got a black screen and my audio started glitching. After few second my pc reseted by itself and instead of loading Windows 10 it went straight to Bios. Now everytime I turn it on it is just stuck in Bios.

I have checked the boot load order, my SSD is listed properly. I tried booting Windows 10 from pendrive, it sees the pendrive but when choosing to boot from it, it doesn't start the installation and just goes straight to Bios. I have checked the both SSD and pendrive on my laptop and it boots there without any problems.

I have updated the Bios, switched the RAM, GPU and CMOS battery just in case and the problem still persist..

My motherboard: ASRock Z370 Extreme4, no warranty anymore.

Weird thing is similar thing happened half year ago and it got fixed itself. I was stuck in bios loop and after few tries I was able to boot from pendrive.

Is my motherboard dead, should I replace it? What else can I do?

Dear Mai101,

Thanks for posting your query to ASRock forum.

Regarding your question, kindly try the suggestions below:
1. Install SSD on different ports.
2. Try a different SATA cable.
3. If possible, kindly try with a different PSU and CPU.

If the problem persists, kindly contact the store where the motherboard was purchased from for further assistance.

With thanks,
ASRock TSD
