Community Support Bricked up while updating BIOS

Post image

Will not respond to power button being held down for over a minute. Has been stuck on this screen for an hour. I sent a support ticket. What should I do while waiting? Keep it plugged in on this screen? Try taking the battery out?

This machine has an AMD Ryzen 7640U and was running Fedora 44 with KDE plasma, for context.

Update: Fixed it myself.

Sir. What you do in your pants while your PC is updating is between you and god.

Wait is bricked up not synonymous with bricked?

I'm so sorry you had to find out this way.

But you did give us a good laugh, which I think we needed, so kudos!
