Hello, My system starts up fine and functions well. The issue arises when trying to reach the BIOS setup. I recently assembled my PC two days ago. Initially everything worked smoothly, but after some updates yesterday, the BIOS stopped responding. Previously, the motherboard displayed an MSI logo until the boot screen appeared, now it transitions directly from a black screen to the logging interface. On the board, there are indicators for various problems, but I can’t see the GPU lights activating during boot. BIOS details: American Megatrends International, LLC. Version 1.00, dated 2021-09-29. I attempted several fixes—removing the motherboard battery for ten minutes, resetting the CMOS with a screwdriver, installing an older GPU driver, and checking all drivers except the BIOS (which is currently inaccessible). My hardware includes: Windows 11 64-bit, Intel Core i7-12700KF 3.6 GHz, 12-core processor, EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 8 GB, GAMING ACX 3.0 video card, MSI MAG Z690 TOMAHAWK WiFi DDR4 ATX LGA1700 board, G.Skill Trident Z RGB 32 GB DDR4-3600 CL18, Samsung 980 Pro 500 GB M.2-2280 NVMe SSD, Lian Li Lancool II Mesh ATX case, Corsair TXM Gold 750W (80+ Gold), and a Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU cooler. Thank you!

Check for updates on devices linked through DP. 10 series cards require a firmware upgrade so they function properly with the BIOS. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/nv-...pdate-x64/
