    Hi all

    Turned my PC on and lost the sound ... went to trouble shoot and it basically said it had to reinstall some drivers thus needed a reboot.

    So I rebooted and it now windows does not load nor can I get into BIOS

    Its a triple screen setup and two of the screens have a white bold underscore “_” about 1/4 from the top to the left.

    It’s just kinda stuck there

    Can anyone give some advice ??

    TIA

    Disconnect the power cord and remove the bios battery to reset the BIOS to the default. It might be an idea to disconnect two of the screens before you do this.

    Al good now ... it was the front USB port (where the headphones were originally plugged in)

    It thought it was some kind of boot drive or something ... thus got stuck there ‍♂️

    The system loaded when I unplugged it and the headphones worked when I used the rear USB

    Ah the wonders of computers

    Thanks anyways
