Question AsRock A320M-DGS stays on boot screen after bios update

[mads2205]

HI there .



i have (just) bought a AsRock A320M-DGS.
made a build and got it all to work nicely. did all the win 10 updates and mobo drivers in place.
The only thing i needed then was to update bios. so i did.. i went from 1.10 to another (think it was 2.50) and then moved on to 3.40 - no problem all worked fine .. THEN i moved on to 4.40. all frozen on loadscreen. see pics.

my pc stops at load screen. (se pics). only TAB works now which only gets me to see the bios version. (2.nd sec of pics)

i have tried 4 times to clear CMOS. i think now in 4 different ways ;-) - but nothing works.

so .. now i cant acces the pc in anyway now. hmm

You might accidentally have downgraded your bios along the way. Check the sticker on the BIOS chip and see what version it was shipped with.

Do you still have access to the Flash BIOS setting from the menu above?

- thx .i checked it. seems like any bios version should work with my cpu - see pic.

- version P1.30 on sticker

- no it just stops there.. i CAN ONLY press TAB and its moves to the second screen on previous post - where i can see its still version 4.40 in bios. (see last post)

thx for reply

Do you have the possibility to get another compatible CPU for testing?
Reset CMOS once again before and let it retrain with the new CPU. Other than that the mainboard might be irreparably damaged, unless you find someone to replace the BIOS chip for you. And even that is not guaranteed to fix it, as other components on the board might have died along the way.

EDIT: also test with other RAM, just to be sure.
