Stuck in bios after updating windows 10

[aaronmichaelsmith55]

Hello around 4-5 days ago i came back to my computer and it wanted to update so i went ahead and clicked update now and left it alone. I came back to 'reboot and select proper device' so i looked up some stuff and saw you just need to move the boot order of your hdd so i did that and i clicked save and exit and to no avail i am now stuck in bios

My specs:
B350M PRO-VD PLUS
Ryzen 1200 cpu
Evga 1050ti gpu
450w corsair psu
2x4gb crucial ram
1tb wd with windows 10

Are you sure your HDD is spinning up when you boot? Clear the CMOS and boot with just one stick of RAM.

Hey thanks for the reply, my HDD is spinning and i tried clearing the cmos with 1 ram stick the options were f1 for setup f2 defaults and continue so i pressed that and found myself back at bios

It's possible something went wrong with the Windows 10 update. Try shutting your computer down and plugging your HDD into a different SATA port.

Based on your original description there seems to be something wrong with Windows. If you have a Windows 10 ISO on a USB drive you should be able to run the "Startup Repair" option.

Okay will try it later today

Alright so i have the usb and plugged it in, it sent me into bios so i saved and exited and im back at bios. My other option when the msi logo pops up is f11 for boot menu so i clicked that and it says please select boot device and the only thing i see is enter setup which takes me to bios

Do you have Fast Boot turned off?
Do you have the Removable Device listed first in the boot order?

 

[aaronmichaelsmith55]

Can't seem to find fast boot i've just checked the search box and typed in fast and boot didnt see it. As for the boot order it is set to:
Boot option #1 UEFI Hard Disk
Boot option #2 UEFI CD/DVD
Boot option #3 UEFI USB Hard disk
Boot option #4 UEFI UDB CD/DVD
Boot option #5 UEFI USB Key
Boot option #6 UEFI Network
Boot option #7 Hard disk
Boot option #8 CD/DVD
Boot option #9 USB Hard disk
Boot option #10 USB CD/DVD
Boot option #11 USB Key
Boot option #12 USB Floppy
Boot option #13 Network
Just wondering which one would be the one to put first so many usb's lol

Are you sure the Windows 10 USB key was created properly and is bootable?

 

[aaronmichaelsmith55]

I believe so i cleared the usb drive and added the windows 10 installation media to it

I don't think that would make it bootable. You need to make the USB key using the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool.

[aaronmichaelsmith55]

Okay i downloaded it and put it on the usb

You don't want to put it on the USB flash drive, you want to run the Media Creation Tool and let it set up the flash drive.

After you have created the USB key, here is a tutorial on how to use the USB key to repair Windows.

Try different USB ports.

 

[aaronmichaelsmith55]

Tried all of them and its not showing up in bios

There may be a setting in the BIOS you need to change, but the owners manual MSI provides for this motherboard does not give any details about BIOS settings.
