I was testing the latest Apex update when the game stopped working. This wasn’t typical, but it caused my whole computer to crash and now I’m stuck on a black screen. It doesn’t load normally, and the power button or reset doesn’t function. To turn it off, I have to use the power supply switch. I managed to boot Windows briefly by removing and reinserting RAM, but now nothing works. Changing RAM again didn’t help. Clearing CMOS and unplugging peripherals helped a little, but nothing permanent. Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks! It seems the gigabyte symbol is flickering on your screen before Windows loads. That could be due to your monitor or display settings. It’s not necessarily a problem, but you might want to check if the symbol appears consistently or if it changes color. If it’s just a visual issue, it probably won’t affect your system.

Gigabyte doesn’t support a BIOS. Many firms do, including American megatrends.
