I'm facing an issue with my Asus Rog Strix 590-E. It keeps skipping the BIOS, even after pressing DEL or F2 repeatedly. I wasn't sure if I connected the wrong USB port (3.2, 3.1, or 20). Now I suspect the built-in video might be interfering with the dedicated graphics card. I changed it in BIOS from auto to PCIE, but that didn't help. I haven't tried this before—I've built PCs for years and never had this problem. The machine works fine otherwise, but accessing BIOS is only possible via the CMOS reset button on the back. Any suggestions?

On Windows 10, press and hold the Shift key while choosing Restart. This opens a menu to enter BIOS settings. Proceed through Troubleshoot, Advanced Options, UEFI Firmware Settings, and then press the Restart button. This method provides direct access to BIOS without needing to press keys. Ensure your Windows account can reach the BIOS for this to work. You might be able to disable it via BIOS settings or registry changes. Also, check if your keyboard is recognized properly.
