HELP ME PLEASE

[Evan Cote]

I very well might destroy this computer. I’ll save time but know that there has been 8 months of continuous struggle building this pc, with every single possible obstacle coming my way. I have fully built this pc, working monitor, peripherals, and I am certain it runs perfectly fine. But it won’t connect to the bios. I’ve searched a lot trying to find an answer, and have come up short. All it says is to press the DEL key. I’ve pressed the delete key on my keyboard, the DEL on another keyboard, F1, F2, F10, F11, F12 and esc on both keyboards, I’ve spammed them, tapped them once, tapped them repeatedly but slower, pressed all the keys at each second of the computer’s start up, tried each usb port of my keyboard on both keyboards, I’ve tried every monitor input I have, and more. What is it? I know the keyboard works. I know the monitor works. I am confident I made no errors building except maybe some cable management. The only possible other explanation I have is the CMOS battery is dead, is this it? I use a gigabyte x670 auros elite ax which I’ve heard has had some bad CMOS battery history. The pc has been not turned on for 7 months and the motherboard had never been turned on so is it possible the battery died? Please tell me theres something else, I don’t have the time to disassemble the pc and change / clear the battery. If that’s what I have to do, I’ll likely sell this for a prebuilt. 

 

I am also getting text which tells me my fTPM/PSP NV is corrupted or the structurr has changed, and the logo on the load in is ami. 

 

Specs if they are needed:

X670 Auros Elite Ax

Hold shift and restart your PC. When the windows recovery options come up select Update & Recovery, then select Recovery. Under advanced, click restart now. Once rebooted, select troubleshoot, advanced options and then UEFI Firmware settings, then restart. This should boot you into the BIOS.

Take a breather. Pickup a CMOS battery at a pharmacy/grocery store and replace it. Flash the latest BIOS with a USB stick and try again. 

 

If the shift option doesn't work, you can follow @Skiiwee29's instruction but just click this button to initiate it instead.
