Blank screen after bios update

sangdi · 07-16-2008, 05:58 PM

I just updated my bios and now nothing displays on the screen. I have tested the computer on another monitor but still does not work. I dont think it is video card's problem since it worked fine before bios update. My motherboard is Foxxcon NF4K8AB.

try clearing your CMOS (the procedure is detailed in your motherboard manual)

but I think you will be looking for a new bios chip

but the new bios chip will come flashed with the bios file you wanted to upgrade to

Hope your bios chip isnt one thats soldered in. If it is, its new motherboard time.
