Hey guys,
Ran into a bit of a weird problem, wondering if I should be concerned or not. I'm running an ASUS Z170-Pro motherboard.
I had to update to the latest BIOS, and it went through the installation fine, but I had a black screen upon the boot after restart.
Here's what I did: Formatted USB to FAT32, downloaded BIOS off ASUS Website, extracted the file and copied the CAP file into the USB.
Booted into BIOS and went to Ez flash, selected my USB and selected the CAP file, then I confirmed and let it run.
It completed successfully and asked me to reboot.
It reboots and power cycles a few times. (Turns on for 2-3 sec, turns off with a click, then turns on again, for about 4 times).
Upon the last reboot, it didn't show anything on my monitor, just showed no signal. The "Boot" light was on on the motherboard.
I pressed Ctrl + Alt + Del and that managed to reboot the computer, and I don't notice issues immediately... Is this normal or concerning in any way...? I 'm not sure if I remember this happening when I last updated the BIOS a year ago. I remember the power cycling.
Monitor is an ASUS PG279Q connected via DisplayPort on my GTX 1080, Is that possibly why?
