The solution: I bought a new motherboard from Asus.    The motherboard on this gaming pc by Medion is probably the worst I have ever seen in twenty years of tinkering with PC building.   I have no idea if it's Medion locking it down or if it's the brand, but I'd advice to stay away.     ...

I might be focused on the trees (details), but I find it pretty odd that I can't enter bios.   I might have been confused about the right model name at first, but this is it:   MEDION MD35024 MSN 20068317 (it says so on the box the PC came in) MB: ECS B460H6-EM       This a pic of the PC model.   https://www.power.no/data-og-tilbehoer/pc/stasjonaer-pc/medion-erazer-engineer-p10-i7-stasjonaer-pc/p-1174049/   Backside of the PC looks just like the manual     ...

Ty for responding. None of the solutions worked out. This is a Norwegian model. Looks slightly different from the one in the manual.

Seems the Medion Erazer Engineer P10 with the 10700F CPUS on this motherboard will leave you f****ed if you have to get into bios.   1. Tried resetting the BIOS via pins on the MB. 2. Tried removing the battery on MB (for 20 mins) 3. Tried different monitors 4. Tried removing the m.2 ssd 5. Tried installing a different hdd 6. Tried different grfx cards 7. Can't find an English online manual of the motherboard 8. Tried using a live CD (USB) with Linux to diagnose, only to find that the BIOS uses Intel RST (which has to be disabled from BIOS) 9. Tried every F-key and DEL immediately after restarting - nothing.   I really can't recommend buying this PC. It's OK until it's not, and you have to get into bios. Then it seems you locked out.         Not a good look.   ... View more

I tried.    Bios does not show up, even if i remove the m.2 ssd.    My guess is that the bios is set up to use an internal grfx card, but the CPU is a i7 10700f -> so the screen remains black.    The bios is prob showing, but the screen isn't getting any input.    Also. Tried booting a live usb distro.of Ubuntu, and it tells me the computer uses Intel RST   Does anyone know where I can find the exact manual?  Also: the screen ports on the MB does not output. Tried them.    ... View more

Is there a way to reset the BIOS manually? I already tried popping out the battery - no luck. ... View more

I tried holding down the DEL key for five minutes. I pressed it before start up. and kept holding it in. Screen remains black, and nothing happens.   I been building PCs for 20 years, but never seen this happen.   Whats the model name and brand of this MB? Tried searching the Medion service pages, but my model (MD35024) is not listed.     ... View more

No. Didn't work. Called Medion. They said F11, but didn't work either.   ... View more

Hi,   I did try F2, but the screen goes blank.    But this is confirmation F2 is the correct key.   It seems the bios fails to show or the screen fails to display it. Same happens when I force restart to bios via Windows settings.    My grfxcard and screen are otherwise working 100%.    I find this odd, as it's a brand new pc.      ... View more
