ASUS R510CC-XX439H Is stuck at bios! Please help!

Hi,

I have problem fixing a problem with my brothers Asus laptop. He just got it a year ago. The problem is that directly when you turn on the laptop the BIOS shows up. I cannot change bootorder because it does not give me the option to. It does'nt even let me go to boot priorities.

Model: ASUS R510CC-XX439H

- Bios version: 217 (just upgraded it to 300 using "easy flash")
- CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3537U 2.00GHz
- Memory amount in GB: 4
- GPU: Onboard Integrated
- HDD: 500gb
- AC Adapter: Original
- Operating system: Windows 8

Things i have allready tried with the same end results:

- Draining remaining power by unplugging battery and holding power button for 1 min
- Unplugging hdd and turn on laptop
- Putting new hdd in and turn on laptop
- Upgrading bios from version 217 to 300 using easy flash
- Can't launch CSM (Shows disabled but cannot chang it)
- Cannot change boot priorities (Won't let me choose boot priorities)
- Disabled fast boot and restarting it. Also enabled fast boot and did the same
- SATA mode selection from AHCI to IDE and restarted it. And changed it back.

Cannot go anyware but the BIOS. Is the motherboard broken? Because i know it's not the HDD.
I have looked on several forums but haven't found any good anwsers. Please help.

Thanks

Hi, did you try F9 : Optimized Defaults in the BIOS?

Can you reinstall the 300 version for your BIOS?

I have an Asus Notebook R510CC-XX439H and it has just happened to me; I am running Windows 8.1 and I have done nothing at all that may have caused this.

Here's what I did that was succesful:

1/ Select the Boot menu in the Aptio setup utility, select 'Launch CSM' and change to enable
2/ Select the Security menu n the Aptio setup utility, select 'secure Boot Control' and change to disable
3/ Select Save & Exit and press 'yes'
4/ Hold down the power button until the unit switches power off completely
5/ Switch back on and continually press the F9 button for about ten seconds; this should now allow the unit to boot up into the Windows Recovery menu
6/ Select 'Advanced Start Up' and wait until the recovery menu appears
7/ Select ' Advanced Options'
8/ Select 'System Restore' and select a date prior to when the problem occured

System Restore worked perfectly for me; good luck

I found something on a different thread as you can see above.
I can get through the first 4 steps but not in the same order. I had to disable "Secure Boot Control" first before i was able to enable "Launch CSM".
I could get any windows installation going (with cd and usb), But when i got to the part where i have to choose a drive. It does not show me any drives. As you already know the bios does not recognize any hdd's. And i already tried a different hdd. Currently checking if downgrading bios works. What can i do to make it recognize hdd?

I have tried to downgrade but without any luck. The bios is write protected. I used this link: http/smart-techtips.blogspot.nl/2012/08/easy-guide-how-to-downgrade-asus-bios.html

But with no luck. again out of options. Any suggestions?

I hace the exact same problem. Did you solve it somehow ?

1) Go to bios and disable Secure boot
2) Then try to enable "Launch CSM" in BIOS
3) After that "Launch PXE OpROM" option apeears, enable it too.
4) Reboot
