    Hello Noah Skjeldnes,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    Sorry to hear about your computer problems. Being stuck in the BIOS can be frustrating, so I've put together a list of ways to do it and maybe give you some guidance if you don't have any options right now:

    1. Check the boot sequence:

    If you directly enter the BIOS at boot, it indicates that the Windows system has not started, and I speculate that there may be a boot failure.

    Make sure your computer is set to boot from the correct drive. The drive with the operating system installed (usually the primary hard disk or SSD) should be selected as the first boot device. (At present, however, there is a high possibility that the drive will not be recognized directly.)

    If the boot sequence is incorrect, your computer may fail to load the operating system and become trapped in the BIOS.

    2. Check the hardware connection:

    Make sure all hardware components inside your computer are properly connected. This includes memory modules, hard drives, graphics cards, and any other peripheral devices. If something is loose, it could cause this.

    3. Reset BIOS Settings:

    If your BIOS Settings have changed or become corrupted in some way, it may be helpful to reset them to the default Settings. Look for an option in the BIOS menu to reset the Settings to default. This is usually labeled "Load Defaults," "Reset to Default," or something similar.

    4. Hardware diagnosis:

    Some motherboards come with built-in hardware diagnostic tools. Look for options in the BIOS to run tests on hardware components such as memory and hard disk. This can help determine if there is a hardware failure that is causing the problem. If you do not know whether it is equipped with the relevant functions, you can consult the after-sales support of the computer, or ask the technical support of the motherboard.

    5. Update the BIOS:

    If none of the above steps work, you may want to consider updating your BIOS. Check the motherboard manufacturer's website for the latest BIOS version for your specific model. Be very careful when updating the BIOS, as incorrect operations can render your system unusable. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

    If you do not have such technical ability, in order to avoid data loss caused by misoperation, I strongly recommend that you take the device to the after-sales support, so that they can carry out a complete inspection for you, which is the safest.

    Best regards,
