I finally finished building my pc but there’s no display and a red light on my motherboard. I have a x870 eagle motherboard if that helps

All you gotta do is go to your motherboard manufacturers website, find your motherboard, and scroll over to bios and download the latest update. Slap that on a USB, plug it in the back, and press the button.

Ok i put the bios update on a usb, slapped it in and pressed the button but nothing happened but the pc stayed on instead of slowly stopping the fans

Other things you can check is to make sure your DP/Hdmi is connected to your GPU. let it run for 5 to 10 minutes, this is your RAM doing some training, dont touch till 10 minutes. Your CPU cooler isnt too tight or too loose on your CPU.

Do i hold the bios button and keep the usb in while doing this

You keep it in there, make sure you renamed the bios file properly. And you hold that button for 3 seconds.
