I... HATE... this.
So I had just installed Windows 10 (I know... late to the party) and everything was going fine. Installed all the drivers just fine. Installed all the updates. Was still bouncing happily between Windows 7 (where I have most of my stuff still) and Windows 10.
Then windows installed the April 2018 Update (aka the Creators Update I guess).
Now I can no longer access the bios on my GA Z97X UD5 BK.
If I try to boot to UEFI firmware... it takes me to a black screen. Disable fastboot and press the correct button to enter bios? Black screen.
Use Gigabyte's own APP to enter UEFI directly? Black screen.
Come to think of it... I'm thinking the Windows update must've reset my bios... which, in turn, would have re-enabled the onboard intel chip so that it's probably outputting video to THAT instead of to my graphics card... which is annoying.
If that's the case I'll fix it in the morning. If not... I'm out of ideas.
I *HATE* the idea of not having access to my bios.
