Hello!

I attempted to change a few settings in my bios and the settings didn't save so i tried to save multiple times. After that the laptop didn't boot but the fan spins and USB has power.

I tried putting the bios files on a usb stick and boot with ctrl-home. If i power the laptop while pressing ctrl home, the laptop's numpad and wifi lights blink, indicating that the laptop searches for the bios file. The blinking/glowing goes on for about 1-2 sec max and then nothing happens.

E: the blinking occurs even when I dont have ctrl-home pressed.

I have also tried to reset cmos, but nothing different happened. I queried the price of a new mobo, which is 132 eur. I am hoping there is a better fix for this seemingly software problem.

Thank you in advance...
