Question Is it possible to reset a computer without turning it on?

[Illumi46]

Hello everyone.

Yesterday I was trying to download a VST Plugin for Fruity Loops and actually it was a virus and after restarting my computer I had a bluescreen. I tried everything to get it back to normal, like backuping, starting in safe mode and so on. after that I got the windows 10 iso on my external hard drive and started to install windows 10 in UEFI-Mode on a new SSD but always had a blackscreen after a while randomly. That triggered me so hard, that I went into Bios and changed everything... That wasn't smart and now when I try to start my computer Its always blackscreen and I cant even go to BIOS. I want to ask you guys if you maybe have an Idea how to fix that. Is it possible to reset my computer completely without turning it on?

Thanks already.

I am rlly bad with computers, I hope this is right:

ASRock Z77 Extreme 6
Zotac Geforce GTX 780 Ti (or something like that)
SAMSUNG SSD 860 EVO 1TB
DDR3-2800+ Corsair Vengeance 4x4GB

The after effects of downloading and trying to install a pirated plugin are often quite bad.

Yeah, I learned from that. I dont know why it never happened to me though. I seemed to be lucky all the time, thats why I started trusting every "okay website". Kinda dumb of me xd But why are people doing such things, I dont get it.. To try out their coding skills and then be so proud of it to use it on others or what is the motivation, I really don't get it : O meeh

Or, the malware was always there and you just didn't notice.

In any case, don't pirate software.

Tom's Hardware has a strict policy regarding assistance with pirated software. No help at a all.
The only thing I'll suggest is a full wipe and reinstall.

Closing this.
