So, I have a Asus Rog/Strix laptop, GL302VS, I believe. I recently did a clean install of Windows 10, in order to fix a few issues. One of which was that the laptop refused to update/boot properly, restarting upon installing windows updates only prompted it to ask me to boot to the ROG screen and become unresponsive, forcing me to switch it off and on, only for it then to tell me that I never installed it properly in the first place.
While I sort of fixed this with the Windows 10 clean install, wiping everything from my laptop, I'm noticing I have the same problem more or less.
I noticed this problem while trying to restore some ASUS drivers to get my backlight working again. When I tried to restart the laptop naturally, it either brings me to a console screen where I'm told I should restore windows and it was unable to boot, or it simply brings me to the ROG screen and does nothing. In the first case, I hit "Enter" to locate the OS, and it simply results in an error. Once I "Esc" out of this console mode, the computer actually boots normally, allowing me to login and everything. If the latter is the case, I'll simply shut it off while it's stuck at the ROG screen, and turn it back on, which seems to get it to work just fine, but evidently is not really booting properly.
I'm wondering if I did something to confuse the BIOS. Not sure how to check that or what that even means. When I did the clean install, I may have bumbled around with some BIOS related settings trying to get the install to go through.
Does this sound like a BIOS problem? If so, is there a way I can check to see what that problem might be and how to solve it? Thanks. : )
