MSI Z170A Gaming M5 Motherboard that has been operating for a year or so, recent installation of Win10 64bit that's been functioning reliably for about a month - everything running just fine, except the various fans throughout the case are just horrendously loud (not dirty, just loud).
I had no fan controllers in place, so I decided to try the the MSI Command Center from MSI's website, downloaded, installed, and throttled the processor fan speed down a bit. Let it do an auto-calibration just to see the difference (between my settings and what it thought was optimal), and it said it needed a reboot to apply settings.
I did not touch DRAM settings, but did turn on Game Boost, and now I'm not getting a display (no BIOS flash screen or POST), no power to the keyboard (wired USB), but the digital readout is showing temp changes as though the processor is still trying to do something.
Suggestions to get my BIOS back? Would a flash on a thumbdrive possibly write over whatever the Command Center did?
