Title: American Megatrends stuck on screen
Post by: white_dove on October 24, 2016, 08:31:36 am

I have the mainboard Gigabyte GA Z97X UD5H
In the last 3-4 weeks, almost everytime when i start my PC, i receive this message ( attached image )
So, i have to reboot from the restart button, and than it's working again
The BIOS is already F10, latest version, i tried to remove the BIOS battery, load optimised settings, etc..
Same story.
Friday i was playing online, and my GTX 980 Ti just died ( burned / fried ) I use now the onboard video, i will send back the GTX 980 Ti, and get another new one
I didn't OC the CPU / GPU, nothing ....
Would you please help me ?
Thank you in advance

Greetings,
See page 54 of your manual.

Ensure "Full Screen Logo Show" is Enabled

Ensure "Fast Boot" and/or "Ultra Fast Boot" are Disabled

Press F10 to save and exit.

If this doesn't resolve the issue, please provide your system specs....  CPU model and if the problem started after you upgraded the BIOS to F10?

Just reviewed your history..

I remember now.  You had an X58 based board and purchased the Z97 in Oct of last year.  Your first board came with a beta bios F10c, which is not available conventionally, but is on Tweaktown.  dmdilks said red flag - Good call on his part and you replaced it.  You've had it a year no issues, and the GPU has taken a dump on you and now you're stuck in a AMI logo boot loop error.  Did I get that right?  Have you tried my suggestions?  Are you running this board with a devils canyon or broadwell CPU?  Have you confirmed your PSU is good/100% functional?
