[SOLVED] Can't install windows 10 from flash drive due to messing with bios settings

[Nithil111]

Hello, I have a gigabite AB350-gaming3 motherboard. During boot (in what I believe is bios) I set the "Storage boot option control" to UEFI only (from legacy only). This has caused my PC to be unable to start, stating something about repairing. I have reversed this back to "legacy only" but the problem persists.

I've decided to reinstall windows (I don't have any data to lose yet) but it won't even let me boot from the flash drive (it keeps restarting itself and does not go to the windows setup).
What can I do at this point?

Reset the cmos. You can take the battery out of the motherboard for a few minutes once you power down and then put it back in and power back up

I just did that, but there has been no change. Still unable to start windows, or boot it from a flash drive 🙁
help?

Would installing a bios update from the gigabyte website help?
