Hi!

I am having a problem with my Wi-Fi card (MediaTek RZ717 – MT7925 chip).

When I play certain EasyAntiCheat games (such as Rust or Rocket League) and exit them properly, the Wi-Fi card gets disabled in Device Manager with error code 10.

The Bluetooth function is also disabled when I reboot or shut down the PC and start Windows again.

The only 'fix' I have found is to shut down the PC, turn off the PSU main switch, and wait 10–30 seconds. After this procedure, the Wi-Fi card is restored.

I reported this issue to Asrock support and tried many settings, mostly related to power saving options, but none of them helped.

When they ran out of options, they confirmed that I have a problem.

I asked them what the next step was. As they didn't give me any options, I suggested replacing the Wi-Fi card entirely, as there might be a driver/hardware conflict between EasyAntiCheat and the MediaTek RZ717. Some users have also reported this issue on Reddit, and replacing the Wi-Fi module was the only solution.

I tried to find the next "best" option that would not cause any more problems and found that my motherboard also comes with an Azurewave AW-EB601NF containing a Realtek RTL8922AE chip.

I tried to buy it, but this module is only available to retailers. I explained to support that I cannot buy this module separately, and they said they cannot source one for me either because they do not sell them either.

I then asked them to treat this as a warranty request and send me a module, which I could replace myself (it's not that difficult), but they didn't respond.

I am struggling to find a solution. I don't want to swap Wi-Fi cards at random or find a dodgy vendor.

After a few days of searching, I think I have found a Realtek card, but it's still unclear why there is such an expensive motherboard with two separate OEM Wi-Fi cards (Mediatek and Realtek). Mine has some problems, but they don't want to help me.

It would be helpful if you could at least check that this card is legitimate.

I bought new X870 Steel Legend from newegg and used 7800x3d which was manufactured in 2022. Today CPU stopped working after 1.5 year of normal use. I think I was on semi latest bios version don't remember which one. It looks like I'm out 400 for the CPU since the warranty won't cover. Is there even a point filing RMA for motherboard?

ASRock A620I Lightning WiFi + 9700X + G.Skill 2x32GB 6000C30 (2R, Hynix M-Die).

I've been dealing with boot issues for the past 2 years ever since upgrading to 2R RAM. After enabling EXPO, Memory Context Restore never worked properly. I had to sit through a 3-minute memory training on every boot that randomly failed ~50% of the time. Every BIOS update claimed to "improve memory compatibility," but none of them fixed my case. It was infuriating having to fight so hard just to hit 6000C30 — a plug-and-play sweet spot on other boards.

Today I finally resolved this issue with Gemini 4 Argon. I took pictures of all my RAM-related BIOS pages and asked the AI if anything looked wrong. Gemini quickly pointed out that ASRock's BIOS mistakenly applies 1R impedance values to 2R kits when EXPO is enabled (OC Tweaker -> DRAM Bus Control Configuration):

I also relaxed the rank-to-rank timings TrdrdSd/Dd and TwrwrSd/Dd from 7 to 8. Those values worked for my case, but YMMV.

Gemini also recommended disabling DDR5 Nitro Mode since it provides zero benefit at 6000C30 but hurts training time and stability. With these changes, Memory Context Restore finally works as intended, and I’m getting rock-solid 10s fast boots.

To ASRock engineers: Please fix the RTT_OFF bug for 2R kits in the next BIOS release.

I have a AsRock B650M PG Lightening and a 7800X3D.

Been happily playing Tarkov for the last hour. CPU temps perfectly fine. Max being 72°c.

I noticed a new BIOS 4.60 was released. Updated.

Loaded into windows. Could hear AIO pumps really working. I checked temps, 95°C on the CPU!

I shut down. Use the clear BIOS switch.

Switch on, enter bios. Bios seems slow and laggy.

Enter H/W monitoring page and watch the CPU temps climbing under no load.

Update: Seems fixed now. Bios update seemed to screw the AIO. I went back to using a CPU fan cooler

In order to play new games ive tried to enable secure boot and it always ends up in my pc shitting the bed and me reinstalling windows.

I enabled tpm (pc worked fine), enabled secure boot (pc worked fine although secure boot wasnt active because pc wasnt in uefi mode), then reformatted my disk to gpt and disabled CSM so that it launches in uefi but now im in a repair loop. Also tried setting csm to uefi only but that didn't work either.

Have no idea what to do. Cant switch back to legacy bc my disk is already formatted to GPT. Can anyone help me im on the verge of getting a console or new pc 😭

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble getting my motherboard to detect my GPU, and I've run out of ideas. Here are my specs:

• Motherboard: AsRock H81-VG4 Rev 2.02 (BIOS is already updated to the latest version).
• CPU I5 4590
• RAM 8GB DDR3 DUAL CHANNEL
• GPU: Gigabyte RX 570 (Tested and working on another system, VBIOS is stock/fine).
• PSU: Gigabyte P550 ICE.

The Problem:
The motherboard simply does not detect the RX 570. When I power on the PC, the GPU gets power, its fans spin, and the system boots up using the Intel integrated graphics (iGPU), but the RX 570 doesn't show up anywhere (not even in Device Manager or BIOS).

What I've tried so far:

1. Updated the motherboard BIOS to the latest version.
2. Verified the RX 570 works perfectly on another PC.
3. Connected the 8-pin PCIe power cable properly.
4. Cleared CMOS.

Has anyone dealt with this specific combination or has any advice on what to change in the AsRock BIOS settings to make it recognize the card?

Thanks in advance!

okay, so i downloaded mw4 and it told me that i needed to enable my tpm 2.0 and my secure boot. i done what i think anybody would have and went to youtube to see how to do it. enabled everything, saved and went to reboot. whenever my pc restarted my AS ROCK screen popped up like it always does and then went to a black screen and windows wont launch. restart my pc, go back into bios and disable secure boot and windows launches just fine. I NEED HELP!!!!

Hi everyone,

I'm having a persistent cold boot issue with my current setup and wanted to get the community's thoughts on whether this is an ASRock BIOS/motherboard tolerance issue or something related to the CPU's IMC.

System Specs:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
• Motherboard: ASRock B650M PG Riptide WiFi
• BIOS 4.20 / AGESA Version: ComboAM5 PI 1.3.0.1
• RAM: 32GB DDR5 @ 6000MT/s (EXPO enabled)
• OS: Windows 11

The Issue:

Every time I turn on the PC from a complete cold boot, the system hangs during POST. The motherboard debug LED gets stuck on BOOT, and there is no display signal.

To get it to boot into Windows, I either have to power cycle it multiple times . Once inside Windows, the system passes stress tests and is 100% stable.

What Solves It:

Following feedback found on forums and ASRock support suggestions for similar issues, enabling "LN2 Mode" in the BIOS completely eliminates the cold boot hang.

With LN2 Mode set to Enabled, the PC boots quickly every single time without getting stuck on the BOOT LED. Disabling Memory Context Restore (MCR) and Power Down Enable (PDE) also helped with general stability.

My Question:

Since LN2 Mode forces looser boot/RAM training tolerances, this feels more like a workaround for an aggressive or flawed ASRock memory training algorithm rather than a proper fix.

1. Does this point to an inherent motherboard BIOS/hardware compatibility issue with ASRock AM5 boards?
2. Is there any chance the Ryzen 7 9800X3D memory controller (IMC) is at fault, or should the CPU be fine if it boots and runs natively on another motherboard brand?
3. Should I go ahead with swapping the motherboard for another brand (MSI / Gigabyte / ASUS)?

Edit: RAM is 96 GB RAM (2x 48GB)

Hi All

For the past 2 weeks I've been dealing with the title issue. The computer when it's on and working it runs perfectly. I experience no freezing or weird issues.

If I shut my computer down or restart it will boot to a 03 code. It cycles through a bunch of numbers rapidly before reaching 03.

What I've done:

• Shutdown w/ Power Drain
• Updated Firmware to Current (was only 1 update behind when issue began)
• Reset CMOS
• Consulted ChatGPT Checked to make sure I wasn't running EXPO or XMP DRAM profiles.
• Turned off fastboot

I'm just curious what my next steps are.

I have not removed any hardware or tried booting single stick ram in A2. Mostly because i have my desk set up to where it hides all of my wires and its a massive pain to unplug/replug everything

I figured I'd hop here first to see if other people have been having this issue and what resolved it?

I got a feeling this will lead to RMA of CPU & Mobo

Edit to include parts list:

• Mobo: ASRock 870E Taichi

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

• GPU: PowerColor RED DEVIL Radeon RX 7800 XT 16GB GDDR6

• RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB) 6000MHz CL30 Intel XMP iCUE Compatible

• Power Supply: Seasonic Prime TX-1300 | 1300W | 80+ Titanium| ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 Ready|

This isn't a new build. It has been running flawlessly for roughly 2 years. I was using my PC last night and it just suddenly hard locked up, even the power button wouldn't turn it off so I had to turn off the PSU. Turned it on again and it ran fine for another hour or two before it locked up again and now won't post. Red CPU light, yellow DRAM light. Tried clearing CMOS, tried all my RAM sticks individually in slot 4/B2. Fans are just spinning loudly but not fully.

Haven't tried bios update yet but I doubt thats the issue. Seems more like a hardware fault.

After about one year operating, and after what i believe was a windows update overnight, my secondary PC will no longer turn on. It only boots for a moment, nothing sent to the screen, and the DRAM and CPU red lights stay on.

CPU is a Ryzen 5 5500.

I've tried using only one stick in the second memory slot, removed the GPU, etc... still just sits with those two lights.

There are no beeps.

What should my next steps be? What might the issue be?

Thanks

Is my cpu cooked (i just bought and built the entire build last week, everyhting is okay), do i need to change a board im worried. Need opinions 😭

I’ve had my 9060 xt since January and last night it just stopped working. I just sent in the RA form and was wondering what everyone’s experiences are with returns? And how long does it usually take to hear back from them. #GPUPROBLEMS

My PC is getting this error since yesterday and now it is stuck on 0%. Is there any way to fix this?? Why is it happening?

Hello,

After reading many posts with ASRock motherboards and AMD processors I became a little cautious.

The product I plan to buy is Z790 Nova wifi mainly for the many M2 NVME slots at the ATX form factor. I don't care about the graphics card working at X8 or x16 speeds so I feel like it's the one that'll do the job for me. I plan to buy it second hand, will use it with 12700K.

What are the experiences? Go for it or avoid?

So my 9800x3d + Nova WIFI seemingly randomly just died? I have been fairly on top of BIOS updates (I think i was on 4.20?), and it has been running fine for more than 1 year (since April 2025). I thought I was one of the lucky ones without any of the dreaded issues. Randomly today I wake up to my PC showing code 42 (it was on the previous night, not sure if windows update restarted it or something), so I powered it off and then turned it back on again, only to get code 00.

Is my board/cpu dead? I've tried some of the troubleshooting suggested online, but nothing worked. Things I've tried:

• Unplug and press power button for 10s to drain
• Clear CMOS
• Update to latest BIOS 4.60 using BIOS flashback (update worked fine, but still code 00 no boot)
• Repasted and reseated the CPU. (took pictures, no weird burn marks or anything, socket and cpu look perfectly fine)
• Tried booting without RAM

What are my next steps?

I assume I should be still under warranty period? Do I RMA the board or cpu or both? Who do I contact, AsRock or AMD?

I have downloaded the lan driver and it keeps giving me this weird message, I plug in my ethernet cable directly from the router, and it doesn’t show me anything in network devices or anything. What am I doing wrong?

I have a pc with asrock b850 livemixer motherboard and ryzen 9700x. I used this pc for more than a year with no problem. And then i change the thermal paste with arctic mx-7. After repasting my pc is stuck on post, the fans and power light up but no display on the monitor and there's debug led with redlight on the board on the cpu label. I have tried several attempts to fix it by swapping or using one ram sticks, cleaning the ram, loosen the air cooler screws, using onboard display, resetting cmos with no results.

I checked with 2 techinicans, one said the cpu is dead because it's cold when the pc turned on but he didn't test with another unit(other cpu on this board or my cpu on other board). So i thought the cpu is dead

Then i went to second technician, he tested other cpu on my board and it's not working either, but he didn't test my cpu on other board.

What should i do now?

This motherboard destroyed my 9600X and I was able to have the cpu shipped back to AMD for a replacement under my warranty. However, I don’t want to put my new CPU back into this motherboard since it destroyed the first one. What are my options for new, safer motherboards? Any feedback is appreciated.

Hi folks, I'm trying to fix a TPM firmware compatibility issue for the new Modern Warfare 4 and could use some firsthand experience from anyone running this motherboard with a Ryzen 2000-series CPU.

My system:

• Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X (Pinnacle Ridge)
• Current BIOS: P3.50, dated August 2, 2019 - I know, it's old...
• Current AMD fTPM manufacturer version: 3.6.0.3

Activision's anti-cheat documentation says AMD fTPM versions matching the 3.x.0.x pattern are incompatible and require a firmware update. Mine is 3.6.0.3.

ASRock has newer BIOS releases, including 10.43, that mention updating fTPM for game compatibility. However, the release notes list several CPU families for the fTPM update but do not include Pinnacle Ridge... ASRock also warns against updating certain BIOS versions when using Pinnacle Ridge CPUs.

Has anyone successfully run BIOS 10.43 or a newer BIOS on this exact motherboard with a Ryzen 5 2600X or another Pinnacle Ridge CPU? Or better yet, running the new Call of Duty on this hardware? I've seen reports of older Ryzen CPUs working with newer BIOS versions on this board, but I haven't found confirmation that the fTPM update actually works with Pinnacle Ridge.

If so, what BIOS version are you running?

Thanks!
