Solved Whenever I Start My PC Up I Get American Megatrends Screen

  • 2

I manage to avoid this American Megatrends screen and be able to log in my computer but now on it wont do anything as I press “F1”, “F7”, “Exit” and “Discard Changes & Exit” it will restart the pc so it will put me back on American Megatrends.

AMBUIS(C)2015 American Megatrends, Inc.

ASUS B85M-GAMER ACPI Bios Revision 0603
CPU: Intel (R) Core(TM) i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz
Speed: 3216MHz

Total Memory: 8192MB (DDR3-1600)

USB Devices total: 0 Drive, 3 Keyboards, 1 Mouse, 2 Hubs

Detected ATA/ATAPI Devices…
SATA6G_1: KINGSTON SV300S37A120G
SATA6G_2: TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-224FB
SATA6G_3: ST1000DM003-1SB10C

SATA6G_1 : Kingston SV300S37A120G
S.M.A.R.T Status Bad, Backup and Replace.
Press F1 to Run SETUP

What is the cause of this issue and what can I do to fix it?
Another thing that I had an issue with just before this was an error of my downloads (example: Discord, Origin etc) whenever I tried to open it gave me an error message and when I tried to reinstall the program/app it gave me the same error as I tried to open the program/app so I restarted my computer to hope for it to fix and then I found myself stuck at the American Megatrends screen.

    it’s the boot drive, so your kingston 120GB ssd which is failing.

    edit: and yes this can cause all other issues you are reporting
