pre bios bootloop, help please!

[V3gab0nd]

Hey guys,

I really need your help.

my little brother turned my pc off by long pressing the power switch because files transfers was not responding (So basically in the middle of coping something).

Now when i turn the pc on, it goes stright to a blue screen that only says "gigabyte UEFI dual bios" on the top (see attached picture).

after a few secondes it restarts and it loops stright back to that screen again and so on and so on.

if i press the keyboard it does nothing, if i press the mouse i get a pointer but i cant do any thing!

I've tried all i know:

- unplagging all but keyboard + changing usb ports 

- clearing cmos from jumper and by removing battery

- removing hardware and trying to post one by one

I'm lost, please help!!!

well... if you can not access the BIOS, it might be the bios that is damaged. 

Or that the bios is trying to access a broken Hard drive that would make it crash ( strange though) 

try without Hard drive.

otherwise, as you have a Dual Bios, you must have a Jumper/button on your MB, to switch to the second Bios. 

so try this too!

thank you for your replay!

I've did try without hard drives, no luck.

from what i can see i have no switch to go to backup bios, from what i understand its supposed to be automatic...
