Hi guys, good to be here, first time post, so quick rundown so I don't bore you to death.
I have (brand new),
AsRock Z170 PRO4 Board
2x GTX 670
850w PSU
16gb Kingston Hyper X 2600 DDR4
Kaby Lake 7700K
I'm stuck in an Infinite boot loop (No post, continuous reset after about 10 seconds), and I suspect its because the bios needs updating for the Kaby lake.
However, the local PC guys back in Australia (im in NZ now), didn't let me know that it 'possibly' has to be done using a Skylake CPU, then install the Kaby. (Is this correct)
Have done all the usual things Reset CMOS, Remove refit RAM, Video cards, Checked all cables and for shorts to ground etc.
My last build using an Asrock board did this as well, but the clear CMOS button fixed this (RAM Issue).
Anyway,
Is there any way to force update the bios from USB stick?
Cheers,
Matt.
