Solution
According to ASUS you need BIOS version 4201. Check this document from ASUS: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8H61M/HelpDesk_CPU/

What does the sticker look like? Also, try to connect your monitor to the motherboard to activate on board graphics. See if that fixes it so you can update the gpu drivers.
