Hi!

I’ve lurked a ton of threads on this topic, but can’t find any type of solution.

Graphics Card - ASUS GeForce GTX 1060 6gb
Motherboard - ASUS Prime Z270-AR


I updated the GPU through a utility (I know, won’t make that mistake again!) last night. When I woke up this morning it was permanently stuck in the ASUS splash screen. Since then I’ve done the following troubleshooting steps

  1. Turning it off and back on again
  2. Disconnecting everything and reconnecting
  3. Tried using a different monitor connection (HDMI -> DVI)
  4. Connecting the monitor directly to the motherboard HDMI port
  5. Jumping the CMOS twice
  6. F8 into safe mode
  7. F2/Del into BIOS
Nothing has worked and no matter what I do I can’t force it into BIOS or safe mode.

Are there any steps I’m missing?
