How can I exit the UEFI BIOS setting? You mentioned a failed hard drive, so it might affect your access.
To exit UEFI BIOS Mode, follow the appropriate steps specific to your system. If you experienced a crash due to a failed hard drive, ensure the drive is properly installed and functioning before attempting to reset or exit the BIOS. Consult your motherboard manual or manufacturer support for detailed instructions.
Are you asking if the computer starts only in BIOS? That suggests a possible issue with the storage device. It might just be disconnected correctly or even completely failed.
"crashed hard drive"? i think you mean it doesn't work or something?
It goes into the BIOS when no drive with a bootable operating system is found.
Reconnect the hard drive and see if the SATA power is connected properly. Also check if the SATA cable is pugged in properly. Now check if it works.
Even after doing above, it doesn't work, make sure there is a working operating system installed onto the hard drive. If not, you'll need to make a bootable USB device (
see how
) and boot from it to install Windows onto the HDD. After that, the PC should boot into Windows.
If the hard drive is still not being detected, and you can't see it in the UEFI (BIOS) or in the Windows install setup, I'm afraid the hard drive isn't working, and another storage device should be used for installing an operating system onto and using the PC.
