    Hi everyone, I have a MSI GT70 Dominator Pro 888. Since I'm updated to Windows 10, I can't access BIOS anymore, although I still can boot into Windows 10 and working fine. Whenever I try boot into BIOS by spamming Del key I got stuck at black screen with UNBLINKING white cursor and nothing else happen. I've try EC reset, remove battery and AC + hold down power button for 30s, but it still not work. Does anyone how to resolve the problem? Thank you very much!

    Have you tried doing a "System Restore" with back to the date before you did the Windows update to see if it will undo whatever was changed?
