UEFI bios and borked windows, uh oh!

[DanFraser]

I've got all of the super speedy boot options but now windows has gone and done something to itself (0x0000000f BSOD) and won't boot.

My motherboard is a GIgabyte H81M-DS2 an I have no idea how to get into the bios to boot from a USB instead!

How do I get into it?

 

[Mr.Scott]

It's an OS driver corruption error. Wipe the drive and reinstall the OS. It'll be faster than trying to repair it.

 

[DanFraser]

I cannot get into the bios to change the boot order though.

 

[Mr.Scott]

Disconnect the drive and clear the CMOS. You should be able to enter the bios with no drive.

 

[DanFraser]

That did it.

Turns out it was a gfx driver issue. Uninstalled in safe mode to get into normal mode, where I used driver cleaner to kill it properly. Going to test my SSDs and video card to make sure though.

 

[Mr.Scott]

Nice.
