Hey there. So i decided to install beta windows 11, like why not. I was following a guide in which was said that i should enable secure boot and fast boot to install it properly. And i went into bios, turned those things on, applied them, then tried to boot into system. But from the start i got black screen, all fans are working, keyboard lightning is good. I cant see bios logo or any other things. After a minute gpu fans are stopping, then nothing.
I tried resetting bios by pulling out cmos battery for 20 seconds(before that i plugged off power cable). After resetting bios i tried to boot my pc. After i pressed the button it turned on then instantly turned off then turned on then turned off after 10 seconds then turned on, but now just keeps working(black screen all the time). Also i tried shortening clr_cmos for 15 seconds with a screwdriver - same results. Tried pulling battery out for 5 mins and holding boot button for 30 secs. Tried pulling ram gpu cpu out as well. My motherboard is gigabyte z370p d3.

you need to make sure your PC is ready for it before enabling secure boot...clearly yours was not ready.

disconnect your hard drives and ssds and then remove ac power, remove the cmos batt for 3 min, then follow the bios reset instructions for your board.
Well, it didnt work

Ok so turn off pc, turn it back on and while it is booting, keep pressing the dlete key like you are trying to win money doing it. See if the bios screen come on in like 30 seconds or so.
I still dont know if its loading to bios or windows. Or its just erroring before bios. Nothing happened when i tried to enter bios by tapping del whatsoever.

Well this is dog water. I have a x570 board and just did almost exact same scenario but just without windows 11 part. (I thought geez it's just a bios setting, just reverse it) but I ain't got no integrated graphics on it because I got newer AMD CPU. Any suggestions or will I be ordering a new mb or CPU? This thread just ended on integrated graphics and I don't like the way this looks already but I gotta try this forum before giving up on $120 Mobo.

Have you updated the bios on your motherboard?

Have you updated the bios on your motherboard?
Was already newest version a month or so ago due to hardware update. No display or post screen so that wouldn't help.

EDIT: After some trial and error and some ideas from a friend I got it working. Thought I'd edit this for anyone else who stumbles across this forum.
I disabled CSM and enabled UEFI secure boot was my error I did. Unfortunately, my disks were not formatted to be GPT so I failed to boot. For some reason, with those settings my GTX 1070 Founders Edition did not work on my motherboard as a display.
I simply swapped my GPU with a old GeForce 310 or something and it starting displaying BIOS screen again. I then reverted my settings and it started working again.
