Hey everyone! I wanted to install CachyOS on my Lenovo Legion GO, and I read that I needed to disable some security settings in the BIOS first. So, I went ahead and disabled both Secure Boot and TPM. After that, I connected the boot media with the ISO, but it didn't boot at all. Now, I'm stuck with a black screen and can't even access the BIOS anymore. I tried removing the SSD and starting up without any hardware, but it's still just a black screen. Can anyone explain why disabling these settings would cause this issue or how to fix it?

Disabling Secure Boot typically shouldn't cause issues with the BIOS, and it seems unlikely that turning off TPM would either. However, I did some digging, and it turns out that the Lenovo Legion GO has had some reports about black screens. You might want to look into specific solutions for that model. Good luck!
I actually found a solution! Disabling both Secure Boot and TPM at the same time is what caused the issue for me too. I managed to flash the BIOS from a USB drive, and now everything is back to normal!
