i just did a complete redo on a new drive (m.2)
installed everything, no problem
a day or two later (this morning) i wake up, go to pc, ordered some Christmas tree clips for my car and then went to facebook, seen a video i was interested, played it, no sound.... okay... i clicked volume control, clicked in it and it normally does a "windows ding" sound, and it wasnt doing it, checked my volume controls all over the place, including my sound bar that im hooked on with hdmi, all good, it was working find last night, now nothing.... okay... well maybe its a fluke and i forgot to instal sound drivers and for some reason my motherboard did its thing anyway and it worked till now, ? no idea anyway
installed sound drivers through asus as usual, then it wants a restart, okay, i restart, then when it gets to bios *press f2 or esc to enter setup* usually stays on that page for about 2-3 seconds and then goes to windowd, this time NOTHING, it stayed there.... i was like uuuhhh ooookkkaay? ill wait a few more seconds?
still nothing, so i tried f2/esc, nothing happened, force restart pc, same thing... now i start to kinda panick, pandemic going on, everything is closed... so i take pc to table, take cover off, do the cmos reset (take graphic card out, battery is under it) wait 10-15 seconds, put everything back together, now everything is working normal
what happened? driver did major error in cmos? do i need to be concerned for anything else? this build is only half a year old...
