PC fails to update after installing a PCI Firewire card, then stops responding again when the card is removed.
Summary: Added a PCI Firewire card to my system and faced posting issues. Removing it resolved the problem temporarily. The motherboard displays specific LED indicators during startup, but some lights don’t activate consistently. I’m trying to understand what’s happening and whether the issue is resolved after removing the card.
I reset the CMOS and ended up in BIOS. The motherboard didn’t recognize my M.2 NVMe SSD, which makes sense after everything was reset. Then I switched it to M.2 mode, which is required for detection. Now it won’t post again. I’ll need a different boot device for further testing.
Problem Resolved: Deleting the Graphic Card allowed the system to start properly. I reinstalled each component individually, and everything is now functioning correctly. The Firewire card probably wasn’t related to any issues I was experiencing.
