Hey there, another day with a challenge. I switched to my BIOS after some audio problems and checked a forum suggesting an internet update instead of using a USB drive. I tried it and the process finished, then restarted the system. Now it won’t post, and the VGA LED is stuck on. From what others say online, the GPU might be faulty, but I tested it on another machine and it worked. If you have any tips or resources, feel free to share. I’m really stuck since I had a deadline to upgrade and need to sell my old gear. Here’s the parts list and a picture for reference: [Parts list](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/F26qgJ) [Reference Image](https://imgur.com/a/C6Syz3G)

Ensure your system uses a dual-boot setup or restore bios; consult the user guide for details.

The only info in the manual I found was about ASUS Crash Free BIOS 3, which didn’t work. For your reference, you mentioned an Asus Prime Z390-A.

you should try clearing the cmos first, otherwise, since there is no extra bios, there are ways to attempt to flash the bios w/o display. that may work if cmos clearing doesn't
