AlexAlexandru,

 

 

We understand you are not able to run the FUT update in your system as it only shows a blinking cursor in the top left corner. We would like to verify this as we have seen some customer having this similar situation, but, after checking some settings they were able to run it.

 

First thing you need to check in the BIOS is that the SATA mode is set to AHCI, then, for boot mode you need to make sure everything is setup as Legacy boot mode or Legacy only, not UEFI as it won't work under UEFI.

 

 

Can we have the model of laptop you have and the BIOS version on it?

 

 

Regards,

 

NC

Hello.The bios SATA mode is set to AHCI is the only option for my laptop.The laptop is Asus x554l bios version 601 ( http://www.asus.com/ro/supportonly/X554LA/HelpDesk_Download/ http://www.asus.com/ro/supportonly/X554LA/HelpDesk_Download/ ).When I choose form what to boot I have UEFI usb flash and simple non-uefi mode.I choose non-uefi mode and I get that cursor but is not blinking.
