Hello,

I purchased the Gigabyte 1060 6gb recently, however, after 2 weeks of owning it, I have gone to turn my PC on but it is getting stuck on BIOS.

It boots up, cuts out, boots backup again then sits on BIOS.

I tried taking out my RAM to see if it was that at first but it still didn't post so with my GPU being new I took it out to see if it was that.

Once I did and changed over to the on board graphics, the PC booted but it came up saying 'BIOS Corrupted - Restoring from a backup' so I let it do its thing, computer restarted then I selected 'Load default optimised settings' then my PC posted into windows (still using onboard).

As soon as I put my 1060 back in, it gets stuck on BIOS again..

I have put in my brothers 7770 and also tried my old nvidia 560 and my PC boots into windows with them in.

Any help with this please?

Thanks

EDIT for google:

Touch wood I've fixed it by flashing my BIOS.
