Ah, it removed the link..
 
Z170 Stinger mITX board
No BIOS screen - no video output to either onboard HDMI or GFX card outputs
Windows 10 (in-windows BIOS flash ran successfully)
Only one BIOS on this board I believe..

Lets have you try a complete BIOS reset. Remove power from the system, unplug the PSU. Remove the CMOS Battery. Press and hold the CMOS reset button for 30 seconds. Leave the battery out for 15 minutes. Reinstall the battery, plug the PSU back in and see if the system will now boot.

Thanks, I have tried this but no change. I've submited a support ticket.

I have the same behavior as  @Ataraxia_UK except mine is a EVGA Classified K Z170. I've contacted support to get a new BIOS chip mailed to me but my computer is DOA right now.

I used the Windows `update.bat` file to update. Somehow I had a BIOS switch malfunction and apparently corrupted both BIOS?

Has anyone installed on a Classified K Z170 with success? I'm scared to update again when I get the new chip

The new BIOS chip will likely come with the latest BIOS already flashed. Unless you requested an older version.

Ok so how would I safely flash the other bios after I get it?

Read post #6.

Those steps are for flashing within Windows. Flashing within Windows is what corrupted my BIOS so I'd prefer to do it from within the BIOS.

Do you know if the same steps apply? Can I switch the BIOS switch while in the BIOS?
