    Hello, I am currently having a serieus issue on my ASUS machine.

    I modified some settings related to the USB in the bios and when I saved and exited i was greeted with a black screen with no activities.

    I tried the CTRL+HOME method with the following combinations:
    -CD in DVD slot containing the files.
    -USB flashstick 32GB FAT32.

    Both the CD contains the AMIBOOT.BIN along with the backup bios files found in the driver utililty CD. Unfortunately no results. It seems to read the CD Drive but after a while it ceases to do anything anymore. So I dont know why this method isnt working. I don't even know why the laptop bricked in the first place. The setting wasn't even harmfull since it isn't related to the bios firmware in any way and is something that i changed a few times in the past as well with no issues.

    Is my laptop completely dead or can i still revive it?
