System powered off during software update. No visual feedback provided.
I missed the warning and unintentionally powered off my PC during a patch. Thinking about fixing it, I’d just revert and try again, but now I’m completely unable to display any video or access the BIOS. So far, no troubleshooting steps have been taken except a few restarts, since I’m unsure what might cause this issue. My Manjaro Linux setup seemed to be a major update, but I couldn’t determine the exact version.
It seems you're dealing with a tricky situation where the system update might affect your BIOS. I'm here for any other tips you could share before things get worse. Your CMOS is stuck under the GPU, which is under the cooler—this is making it hard to fix without disassembling everything. Let me know if you need more guidance!
Shutting down during data writing can interrupt the BIOS setup. To test, remove the boot drive and check if the system enters BIOS directly.
Alright, was not fun but got at the reset without taking out the cooler (GPU had to go). That's got me to post. Thank you both you for pushing me to reset : P Yeah, that makes sense. Thank you.
