The following explains how to fix the black screen issue in BIOS that may occur after enabling Secure Boot or importing certificates.

  1. Remove the CMOS battery to reset the BIOS. This may work, but it is not guaranteed.
  2. Try using the reset jumper on the motherboard.
  3. Connect a CPU with an integrated GPU and attach your monitor to the motherboard’s DisplayPort. This should allow you to access the BIOS menu and perform a reset.
  4. Some motherboards support the Q-Flash utility, which allows you to update the BIOS without entering the operating system.
