have you tried to reset BIOS?

To do a mainboard reset, Kindly follow these steps:

  • Plug in the system to AC.

  • Remove the Input Cover.

  • Press the chassis open switch in the lower part of the RAM slot (encircled in yellow), you must press it slowly, so press for 2 seconds. Release, wait for the red blink on the Mainboard LEDs. Repeat.
