  • Wierd characters in Z97 Gaming BIOS

    Hi All,

    My PC was running great for over a year until I replaced the CMOS battery.

    Since then I am getting funny characters in the BIOS. See link:

    I wanted to change the SATA mode to RAID to allow me to boot to Windows 10. I am currently getting the “Missing operating system” message because it does not recognise my RAID.

    When I select “Save Changes and Reboot”, the screen dims slightly but does not exit. I think it may be prompting me to confirm, but I do not see a pop-up message.

    I have also tried booting with the on-board video and I just get a black screen even though all the lights and fans are on in the box.

    Any ideas on next steps??

    Thanks.
