Title: GA-EP31-DS3L: hardware not connecting
Post by: polovina on June 21, 2013, 02:36:05 pm
I have problem with my computer. After accidentaly putting my computer into sleep mode (or something like that) and hard shutdown and start, computer refused to start keyboard and graphics card. after reboot it writed down something about BIOS-autosomething (am not sure but it was some sort of autotest) and now after start it refuses to do anything, it only makes one long beep. I tried to unplug everything but it didnt helped. I think that something rewritable in bios was rewritten. What can i do ?

First try clearing the bios. If that doesnt work hit F9 which will back up bios if you havea dual chip bios which most gigabyte have. Report back what harrpens.

maybe i have written down that nothing works including monitor and keyboard. and to my question, i think that i put my pc into hibernation or something than i powered it off via power button an than relaunched it. than these problem starts.

update 2: after unplugging and unbattering for more than one hour, the computer behaves same like before it. momory of BIOS should be erased isnt it right ?

I would guess you have cleared your bios back to 'original' state and now your machine can start.
