Hi. I recently played Valorant for a while and the game first asks to enable Secure Boot. When I tried to open the BIOS, it just displayed a black screen. I switched monitors and then another one, but nothing worked. After that, I removed the CMOS battery, which made things worse. All my settings vanished, including the "ignore fan speed" option. Now I see an error message saying "CPU Fan Error!" and it forces me to press F1 to run setup, but I can’t access it. My motherboard is B550-F Gaming (WI-FI), CPU is AMD Ryzen 9 5950x, GPU is RTX 3090. Anyone have any advice?

You might need to modify your BIOS settings. A BIOS flashback option is available; simply download the newest BIOS, use the included rename utility, and save it to a USB drive. Insert the drive into the correct port, then activate the BIOS flashback feature while the computer is powered off but the power source remains active.

It seems there was likely a BIOS issue on AM4 boards with RTX 30 series cards, causing a similar problem. You might want to try updating the BIOS using BIOS flashback to potentially resolve it.

I faced the same issue about a month ago (3070, 690 MB). Once it stopped working, I attempted to update the BIOS using bios flashback but it didn’t help. Eventually, I had to contact the manufacturer (gigabyte for me) and they resolved it.
