Dead Bios/Motherboard?

Go to solution Solved by Guest,

Clear the cmos and try again. 

 

The board has a jumper that you short to clear the CMOS. Page 36 in the manual. System power off, PSU switch can remain on.

 

If pulling the battery, PSU must be off, battery out at least 10 minutes and reinstall, PSU switch on and post.

 

Allow first post additional time while it will do a full self check but generally within 90 seconds you should see the bios splash screen.

 

If the clear cmos does not work, then you will proceed to try a bios recovery. 

 

Hello so one day everything was working fine as usual then i updated my bios through Dragon Center (i have a MSI B450M-A PRO MAX btw) the update went to 100% it restarted after that i got no display but the fans were all spinning,keyboard was working mouse wasn't,all leds were on,gpu is working fine.I tried taking out the ram,clearing the cmos and all my cables are plugged fine.I dont have a bios flashback.I dont know what else should i do,is my mobo dead?

I posted an image of my ports if anyone wants to see them or need them for more info.
