Greetings,
I downloaded Precision X1 and now upon start up, the bios access screen is now bypassed. I tried resetting the CMOS with no luck.
 
SYSTEM:
EVGA 2080 Super XC 
Ryzen 7 3700x
Aorus X570 Ultra
 
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated,
 
Thanks,
Scott

    Welcome to the EVGA Forums & Congrats on your First Thread
     
    lets see what we can do to Help
     
     
     
    You may be seeing the X1 splash screen - maybe ?  instead of the MB splash / BOOT screen
     
    That would not stop you from entering BIOS .... on reboot ... start pushing the key for your MB

    1) So, shut down, pull the plug from the wall .... you will get a true "cold BOOT"

    Remember to turn Windows 10 Fast Startup OFF, when upgrading drivers, firmware or hardware

                With Windows 10 there is a new “hybrid” startup mode that should cut down on boot up times.  It does this by putting the PC into hibernation instead of "fully shutting down."

    Fast start up is off in Windows. I suspect X1 triggered fast startup in bios because that is how it is acting. When initially turning on, the Aorus screen never shows up. It goes directly to the windows wall paper. Holding or tapping delete (bios entry) does nothing.
    Thanks for replying.

    so, did you get it fix by:


    1) pulling the Wall plug after shutting down ?
    2) following those steps in the link ?
