Hello I decided to update my BIOS today as I got a notification. I have a GA-Z97X-UD3H Gigabyte motherboard. The issue is now my computer doesnt boot-up properly. So first after the update I reset my computer like it asked to. Then it after a the normal loading it doesnt show a signal to my monitors but I can clearly hear my computer running. I checked here for that problem and cleaned up the RAM and CMOS battery. Rebooted, it acknowledged the motherboard was reset due to the battery I assume. Now it has the option to boot in repair disk option or windows normal startup. I picked repair disk option then it shows windows is loading files, then no connection to my monitors. Reboot, says windows didnt restart properly, I went to safe mode to make sure it was fine, all my files are there but I dont know what to do in safe mode to fix the problem. Reboot again, start windows normally and then I get stuck into the loading screen with the blue wheel. This cycle just keeps continuing. Is there a way to reverse the BIOS update back to f5? What should I do? I need my computer ASAP for school. It is a desktop and I have dual monitors if that is useful information.
