[SOLVED] How do I fixed my borked BIOS screen? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] pirat@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

Of course, was grateful for everyone sending ideas, I eventually was tooling around in my. monitor settings to see I'd I could reset something.

I just started going with my general philosophy of 'what does this do?' and flip back if something undesirable / unnoticeable happened.

was honestly shocked when I stumbled upon it as I don't recall switching the input version for the monitor.

I was able to fix by changing the input version on the monitor (though I don't recall switching it).

This all happens before the OS / graphics driver loads.

so initial mobo splash, grub, and bios if I enter that screen.

I think so unless it does a switch at some point. I'll take a look and update when I'm on the CPU later today.

I'm not sure when or how, but one day when I plugged my monitor back into the graphics port my BIOS screen looked like this.

Everything is fine when I boot into the OS.

I read that updating the BIOS could fix this, but to no avail.

Not sure what info would be relevant here but here are some basics:

  • ROG Strix 760-I Gaming Wifi running Version 1825 BIOS
  • Nvidia 4080
  • Kubuntu
  • Odessey G9 Ultrawide

EDIT - SOLUTION

Turns out the monitor was using display Port Version 1.4; when I switched this to v1.2 everything went back to normal

**EDIT - Thanks! **

I wanted to say thanks to everyone who put eyes on this and offered testing ideas, I'm glad I was able to stumbled to a solution that was prompoted by some of the ideas in here (even though the solution may not seem connected initially to anything stated).
