After installing Windows 10, the monitor ceased showing BIOS information.
Hey! Got my first build running last week. Everything went snazzy, and I got access to bios. After seeing that my pc boots to bios, I installed win10 from an USB-stick.
Now, after updating drivers and windows updates, I wanted to go back into bios, and update my ram speed from the default 4600 to what it really is, 5600.
However, now when I try to boot into BIOS (be it with spamming delete on startup, or holding shift when restarting and choosing UEFI from there), it simply boots to a black screen. The monitor isn't off however, it's still emanating light, but it's still black. I've turned off fast-boot.
I'm quite sure, that this is a display issue. During the bios screen, if I press f10 + enter, the screen turns off momentarily and then normally loads windows. F10 is the save & exit button in bios, which leads to my conclusion that BIOS is booting, just not displaying on my monitor.
I do have a bios update I could update to. I'm just scared to do it, if it tries booting into BIOS, and I'd be forced to shut off the pc mid update. I've heard that can brick your mobo

Any help would be appreciated. It's not super urgent, and my pc runs well, but it could run better.

Is this link your motherboard? If yes, I have a BIOS update I could install. I'm nervous about updating it because I worry it might cause issues if the system boots into BIOS and I have to turn off the PC during the process. I've heard that using the Q-Flash BIOS button on the rear of the motherboard can help recover from such problems.

Is this link your motherboard? If yes, I might have a BIOS update ready for installation.

Your monitor is connected via HDMI, and you're wondering about your display model. You could try connecting it to the motherboard's output ports and see if the system boots normally after the change.
This motherboard?

Check that you have the correct User Manual.
Go through the entire manual carefully to ensure all installed parts are compatible and correctly set up.
Examine the numbered page 13, section 2-4 closely.
Did the initially installed RAM match the DDR5_A2 specification as mentioned in the 4th warning point?
Also review Chapter 3 - BIOS Setup.
You might need to reset everything and begin anew.
This is my mobile device. Regarding flashing, I prefer to skip it whenever possible. Setting up and getting the PC running was quite a challenging process, and I wouldn't want to go through it again, particularly now that the system is working properly.
My monitor model is S24E391HL.
I can attempt to connect my monitor directly to the motherboard, but I thought this would be unnecessary since I won't have a display without a GPU (the CPU doesn't have an integrated graphics unit).
Yes, that's the motherboard, and yes, this is the manual I used when assembling the PC.
All parts should be compatible.
The first RAM I installed was DDR5_A2.
Because I don’t have major issues other than RAM speed and a few settings I’d like to adjust, I’ll skip resetting as long as possible.
