If you ever do that again, just remove the CMOS battery (looks like a nickel) for an hour or so, then put it back in. This effectively resets the BIOS. On some Mobo's, there's a jumper that you need to 'short' by placing it on two nearby leads that will do the same thing without having to remove the battery. Check your board's manual to see which jumper you need to short, if any.​
There’s a reset CMOS button on the back of these new Asus mobos that’s accessible from outside the case, easy peasy. Thanks, though, breh :salute:
