Hello. New user here.
So I wanted to upgrade my PC and I needed to upgrade my MOBO to do so, so I asked on the Reddit forums of this line of MOBOs a couple of questions about the process.
Here's the post:

In short, I have a Gigabyte GA-AB350-Gaming (rev 1.x) with BIOS version F10 and I needed to update it to F51g. I did the chipset upgrade and updated to F31. Nothing seemed wrong, but after restarting, the BIOS was still on F10, so I updated it again.
However, this time the PC started but it didn't recognize my keyboard or mouse and there was no signal to the monitor. I waited around thirty minutes in case it was doing some restarts or something like that and then I shut I down and started it up again, with the same result.
I've removed everything from the PC, changed the socket of the only RAM stick I have ( a Crucial CT8G4DFD824A.C16FBD1) and tried changing the GPU; I've also tried clearing CMOS but nothing has worked.
What should I do? Anything I missed or where did I screw up? Should I be thinking about buying a new motherboard?
Thank you for your help.
