No display Signal Bios setting

[seiM]

Hi,

is there a Handbook of the Bios? I accidently switched one option in the Bios which gives me no Display signal at all. Something under Displayadapter concerning "PCI" i chose the last option of 4 and now i cant get a sigbal to the display.
Or is there any CMOS reset? This Case seems totally closed.

I don't have one of these, but check to see if there is a reset button inside the audio port on the back of the unit with a straightened paper clip. In some models there is. Be careful though. Make sure the unit is totally devoid of power when you do so. It might even be a good idea to press the power button after everything has been disconnected from the unit to ensure power is totally depleted from it.

If there is a reset button inside the audio port you'll feel it depress. It will be subtle, but you'll feel it. If there is, press and hold it in for ten or fifteen seconds, then reconnect the monitor, keyboard, mouse and power and try starting the unit again.

From the look of it the front audio port is a mic, so don't stick anything in that one. If I'm wrong, however, and it is an actual audio port, you can check that one too. Again, I don't have one, so I'm just going by the pictures. That front one just looks smaller, like it's only a mic.

From what I understand, there is no reset button on the outside of the M1A;
We recommend that you try the following operations to restore BIOS settings:
When the computer is not turned on, press the [Delete] key (do not let go), then press the power button, wait about 20 seconds, you will enter the BIOS interface (release the [Delete] key); press the F3 key (restore default values) > Press Enter＞Press F4 key (save settings)＞After pressing Enter, the computer will restart and it will display normally after a while.
Please note: Do not change BIOS settings at will.

Thank you!

I could help myself by blindly finding the reset option in the bios.

F12/Del, Left, down return, down return, down return. Then it restarted several times and gave me Displaysignal again.

Btw since this RTX is a customhardware, there has to be a spevialdriver to be installed.
those are working for me: https://github.com/arutar/FrankenDriver ... s-download

I changed some settings in BIOS and since doing that I don't see any display output from the machine
To be precise I disabled onboard Display adaptor (Intel) to use Discrete Display adaptor (Nvidia RTX 3080) to play some high end Games since Windows 11 was still using Intel Iris Graphic card instead of Nvidia RTX 3080
Please advise how to access BIOSt to reset the BIOS settings?

Barry gives a process for resetting the BIOS above. I would try that.

None of the above steps are working for me
All I can see is RGB lights on the Unit and nothing else
Which graphics port on this Unit is connected to NVIDIA RTX 3080? May be I can try connecting that to the TV/Monitor

Unfortunately, I have no clue. I don't have that model. Hopefully another person who does can help, as right now I believe the barry and the admin are still on vacation.

You opened a new forum thread about the same question - https://minipcunion.com/viewtopic.php?t=5551

Let's avoid duplicate posts, and discuss things there.

This is what I read on website chaatrey.com
How to reset the bios if you cannot enter the bios?
If you’ve changed the BIOS settings and now the computer can’t enter the BIOS.
You need to disassemble the computer and disconnect the CMOS battery in order to reset the BIOS to factory settings.
You can follow the video instructions to locate the CMOS battery and disconnect it to reset BIOS.
After you’ve tested that the computer can start up normally, you can reconnect the CMOS battery again and reassemble the computer.
You can test without installing a hard drive, but you will need the RAM.
