So i was trying to install Linux on my PC and then I turned off secure boot and enabled Legacy boot and all a sudden, there is no BIOS screen on boot and I can’t access the BIOS from boot or on Windows. Can somebody please help me? I didn’t try any troubleshooting methods either.

I fixed it myself! Kinda…. So I opened up my PC and i was looking for the cmos battery and I found a button to reset the cmos and I clicked it a few times, and then I closed my PC. After that i turned it on and the BIOS screen is back! But Windows got corrupted. No worries because I backed up some of my important data when I was moving to Linux.

It is a critical part of the computer's startup process and provides several important functions. Here's an overview of what you can typically do from the BIOS screen
