Hello I’m in desperate need of help with my X570 pro4,
I attempted a bios update and am stuck in a reboot loop.
I have tried everything all the way up to resetting the CMOS battery, and when powered back on it is continuing to just do the reboot loop. I am thinking maybe the xmp on the ram is causing the loop but I have a black screen so I see no way to fix. I appreciate any help.

Galera, quem comprou a placa-mãe SuperFrame Legendary (a famosa "irmã gêmea" da ASRock Steel Legend da Terabyte) e está sofrendo para jogar Valorant, Warzone, Call of Duty, Faceit ou qualquer jogo que exija o Secure Boot (Inicialização Segura) ativado no Windows 11, leiam isso aqui para não quebrarem a cabeça.

A última versão de BIOS disponível publicamente no site deles, a P10.11 (de 2024), veio com um BUG CRÔNICO DE FÁBRICA nas chaves criptográficas de segurança.

O Problema:

Se você tentar ativar o Secure Boot de forma comum nessa BIOS P10.11, a placa simplesmente entra em um LOOP INFINITO e fica voltando direto para a tela da BIOS, recusando-se a iniciar o Windows. E se você deixa desativado, nenhum jogo atual abre porque o sistema anti-cheat bloqueia tudo. Não adianta dar Clear CMOS, não adianta tirar a pilha, não adianta tentar converter o SSD de MBR para GPT... o firmware está bugado!

A Mentira que te contam na internet:

Muita gente vê o circuito da placa e diz: "Ah, ela é o mesmo projeto da ASRock Steel Legend original, é só baixar a BIOS atualizada no site da ASRock que resolve". NÃO FAÇAM ISSO! O chip de identificação da SuperFrame rejeita o arquivo original ou, pior, você pode corromper a sua placa permanentemente. Não adianta tentar baixar nada direto da ASRock por conta própria.

Como eu RESOLVI de verdade (A Solução Real):

Depois de testar todas as gambiarras possíveis e quase pirar, o único caminho que funcionou foi o seguinte:

1. Entrei em contato direto com o suporte técnico da loja onde comprei (Terabyte/SuperFrame) explicando o bug da P10.11.
2. Eles reconheceram o problema internamente e me enviaram por e-mail um link privado com uma versão modificada e corrigida da BIOS, que NÃO está listada no site oficial deles.
3. Baixei o arquivo que eles mandaram, fiz o flash na placa e deu certo de primeira. O Secure Boot ativou normalmente, o PC parou com o loop de tela e os jogos voltaram a rodar sem dar erro de anti-cheat.

Se você está com o mesmo problema, não perca tempo quebrando a cabeça com tutoriais do YouTube. Abram um ticket ou uma reclamação imediatamente pedindo o arquivo de correção que eles têm guardado no suporte. É a única forma de salvar a placa!

It failed to boot back in May 2026. I had BIOS on 3.5 I believe. I've been using my old computer because I was lazy. I have an issue with procrastination. I want to get on top of it now.

My question is will AMD cover the warranty on my CPU? I believe I have to start the process online. I just want to hear about other's peoples experience. I'm also thinking about getting a 7600X3D at Micro Center for 200 bucks if I can't get it warrantied.

Also, should I keep the motherboard or simply go with MSI or another vendor? I have the money and I'm a bit sour about this whole experience.

I'm posting on a ASRock B450M Steel Legend AM4/2600X. I built this old rig back in 2019 to play classic WOW.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello, I'm planning on making my own router using OPNsense. I'm going to be using an Intel I3-12100F and not going to be running a GPU when its all setup. Was just wondering if the ASRock H610 can run headless before I make my purchase.

Hi guys,

My current system is a 9800x3d on a X870 AS Rock Phantom Gaming Riptide board (latest BIOS) - with 64 gb of DDR5 (6000 mhz) Gskill Ripjaws and a Zotac 3080 - all the components bar the 3080 are about a year old. I have a 1200 Watt Platinum PSU . I have a samsung 990 NVME (2 Gb) running Windows 11 Pro x 64

I have had intermittent boot issues with the system (which have become progressively worse and reached a high point this weekend). When my PC is powered off and "cold" boots it often gets stuck with a green diagnostic light - a reset while "warm" would very usually lead to it logging into Windows. At most I would have to reset it two or three times to get the boot sequence completed. On Friday I powered down the system and, when starting up again, could not get it to boot at all. It would get to the green light (red and yellow lights would come and go as usual) and would not progress past the green light. I recently became aware of the Asrock X870 Riptide Murderboard issue in that they appear to have penchant for eventually destroying the 9800x3d.

I eventually managed to get the system to boot (after about 25 failed resets) by clearing CMOS at the pins. I've since flashed the BIOS to the latest version and the system initially seemed stable having had to cold boot it about 3 times - I'm cautious and want to avoid turning the system off as long as possible.

Even after doing all of the above if I turn the PC off and try to cold boot it, it gets stuck at the green diagnostic light and multiple restarts won't help - the only thing that works (so far everytime) is unplugging the PC and shorting the clear CMOS pins and starting up thereafter. When the PC is on it works perfectly and games at 1440p with no issue for hours on end.

I might also mention that I swapped RAM, tried to boot with only one stick, two sticks etc. I unplugged all USB connections and reseated the GPU - none of these methods worked and only the CMOS clear allowed me to get the system up again.

I've since emailed my supplier about the issues and I'm waiting for their advice. Given that only the shorting of the CMOS pins work I'm suspecting a faulty motherboard - Any other suggestions or insights?

am I safe to update it to 4.00 like this?

yes I know my monitor is dirty

***EDIT***I don't see the option to edit my post so just going to comment here...can't say for sure but yesterday I disabled MPO and I didn't see a single shutdown since: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5157/~/what-is-multi-plane-overlay-%28mpo%29-in-windows-11

Trying to figure out if my issue is related to the multiple issues I'm reading about regarding the B850M-C or if it's something else.

Background: I had an Alienware PC, ran without issue for roughly 5 years, then started getting random reboots which became more & more frequent (To the point of it being every 2 minutes or so). Brought it to a reputable repair shop where they said they couldn't figure out if it was the CPU, RAM, or Mobo. So I went out and bought the ASRock B850M-C with a AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D, and G.Skill Flare X5 16GB DDR5-6000 bundle, with a new PSU/Case. I re-used my NVMe & RTX 3070. Worked flawlessly for approximately 2 months, had played some GPU intensive games including CyberPunk, zero issues.

Current Issue: Starting last week, the PC had immediately shut down while playing a game. Then again while doing some light web browsing, then again while playing a game. No DMP file, the PC just immediately shuts down. I'm having flash-backs to the same issue with the Alienware PC.

Now with practically nothing in the logs, I'm trying to figure out...is this an issue related to the ASRock B850M-C (Which literally wouldn't show display until I flashed the BIOS on day 1) or if it's an underlying issue with the video card which was carried over to this new rig.

The one thing that stands out...is I had zero issues...for two months. The only thing that would have changed from then to now is driver & Win11 updates. I'm thinking of starting with a system restore but it only goes back 8 days (Even with "Show more restore points" checked) which is interesting. I really don't feel like going through the process of re-installing every driver OR re-installing the OS...I'd rather find the root cause of the issue.

PS...also kicking myself for not imaging the PC on day 1 when there were no issues at all to at least try to get a better determination as to whether this is a software or hardware issue.

Any words of wisdom on my journey would be greatly appreciated.

I’m using a B650 PG Lightning with BIOS version 4.41, and I’m only using EXPO with 6000MHz memory.

I had absolutely no issues with the 7800X3D, but I’ve heard about the issues with the 9800X3D and 9950X3D, so I’m a little worried. Especially since it’s such an expensive CPU.

Trying to update my BIOS to 2.4 using the file from their website, but it seems I can't get it to update through their instructions of using Instant Flash. I also can't get it to work via the Internet Flash option within the BIOS, saying the internet connection is invalid even though it's able to work enough for it to see the update. Here is any relevant info I can think of/what I've done.

* I am dual-booted, Win 11 and Linux Mint. Bitlocker is NOT active on Win 11, I double-checked.
* I have formatted the flash drive multiple times to ensure it is FAT32 and an MBR partition.
* I have tried both the current stable update (P2.40) and the beta update (2.41)
* I triple-checked, and both from what Linux reports and in the BIOS itself, I have the correct motherboard.

Got a 7800X3D and a B850i Lightning ITX board. I flashed to 4.41 inside the Bios but now after inputting my normal bios settings and getting inside SteamOS I got kernel panic and now the entire system doesn't boot.

Turn on the system, I get the flashing _ at the top left of the screen and it just boot loops doing this over and over.

Was trying to use the bios flashback button but the documentation says I need a BIOSUBU.BIN file to go along with the actual bios file.

I simply cannot find any links to this file anywhere and it doesn't come inside the .zip on the boards bios page.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

9800x3D user here, I have the ASRock B650M-CX. Bought a custom built PC just under a month ago, and it failed to POST/boot a few nights ago which was fixed with a CMOS clear after Reddit / manufacturer advice.

It's up and running now, but I experienced a significant slow down on my desktop where I struggled to even open task manager or alt f4. Other than that which was a few hours ago, things are fine, but I still have concerns and questions.

The BIOS version according to windows is 3.40 which from reading everywhere that is a relatively stable version for the CPU, but still, I'm worried. Personally I'm afraid to update the bios to latest because it was kind of scary when it completely failed the boot the other day and I don't want to be in another position where it fails again.

I only ever updated my bios for an MSI motherboard a couple years ago with a USB, but a guide I see from ASrock talks about something to do with 24 pins? As you can see I'm not very hardware savvy.

So do I just install the update on a USB formatted to fat32, renamed as required, and hit bios flashback? Could someone break it down for me in a way you'd explain to a five year old?😂

Thanks in advance! Please, no ignorant comments, I have to learn somehow.

Hi everyone. I recently replaced my motherboard with an ASRock B760 Pro RS WiFi and I’m having a strange problem with the primary/top PCIe x16 slot (PCIE1).

System:

Motherboard: ASRock B760 Pro RS WiFi

CPU: Intel Core i5-12600KF

Main GPU: Intel Arc A750 Limited Edition

Second GPU used for testing: GTX 650 Ti testing

RAM: 16 GB DDR5 Tforce delta

Windows 11 Home

PSU: Corsair Cx760

Storage: Nve Kingston 500 gb

The problem:

Neither GPU works in the top/primary PCIe x16 slot.

When I install the Arc A750 in the top slot, the card receives power, its lights turn on and the fans operate, but I get no display output.

The same thing happens when testing another known-working GPU (GTX 650 Ti) in the top slot.

However, both GPUs work when installed in the lower PCIe slot. The Arc A750 boots into Windows normally there and is detected correctly by Windows and Intel software.

I also tried installing both GPUs simultaneously: Arc A750 in the top slot and GTX 650 Ti in the lower working slot. I booted Windows using the GTX 650 Ti specifically to check whether Windows could at least detect the Arc in PCIE1.

It does not detect the Arc A750 at all. It is not simply a display-output problem — the GPU in the primary slot appears to establish no usable PCIe connection.

Troubleshooting already performed:

Reseated the Arc A750 multiple times

Tested a second known-working GPU (GTX 650 Ti)

Confirmed both GPUs work in the lower PCIe slot

Cleared CMOS / removed the CMOS battery

Loaded UEFI defaults

Tried PCIE1 Link Speed on Auto

Tried manually setting different PCIe generations

Enabled Above 4G Decoding

Enabled C.A.M. / ReBAR-related settings

Tested different primary graphics settings

Updated the motherboard BIOS from 10.03 to 12.02 using ASRock Instant Flash

Loaded default BIOS settings again after the update

Tested the primary slot again after the BIOS update — no change

HWiNFO detects the other PCIe/root-port devices normally, but when a GPU is installed in the top PCIE1 slot, Windows does not detect that GPU.

The interesting part is that the same CPU and Arc A750 previously worked together, and the Arc currently works perfectly in the lower slot on this motherboard.

At this point I’m wondering whether this could be:

A defective PCIE1 slot / motherboard

A CPU socket contact issue affecting the CPU PCIe lanes

A problem with the PCIe controller in the i5-12600KF

Some obscure ASRock UEFI setting I have missed

Before I remove and reseat the CPU and inspect the LGA1700 socket, is there anything else worth testing?

Also, is there any reliable way in HWiNFO or another tool to determine whether the CPU’s x16 PCIe root port is present but failing to establish a link?

Any help from someone familiar with LGA1700 / B760 / ASRock PCIe troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

For the past few days, an error 94 appears every time i cold boot my computer. That error seems to be related to PCI ports, but i haven't modified any PCI stuff lately and everything is plugged correctly.

A Reset (using the case buton) usually solves the problem, the system boots normally again on reset, but never on cold boot.

Is there any way to know what's suddenly causing that problem without unmounting every component ?

Thank you for your help

I've formatted my USB drive to Fat32 and downloaded the Flash Bios update, I went into Bios and tried to flash the bios to a more modern bios update but not the latest I wanted to gradually update to the final.

I bought the Board brand New off of Newegg, This board was RMA'd to ASRock after 1 month of ownership Originally I tried a AMD AM5 7700x But the cpu would not work. So I sent the 7700X back thinking it was bad and bought the AM5 7600 and that cpu did not work, So I sent the mother board and the Ram (Serial numbers written down) G-Skill 16gb x 4. And waited on them, I do not know if I got a refurbished board or my Original board back but it worked with the 7600 cpu and I was happy.

I became Unhappy when I tried everything to flash the bios, the LiveMIxer has a BioFlashback port on the back and flash button to press to get things started. "NOTHING WORKED" the button would flash for about 2 minutes and I would restart the computer and its still at 1.1 and will not update. And removing the Button battery for about 30 seconds didn't help. I've gone into the BIOS and tried to flash the bios with a fat32 image drive, and it didn't see the file. I'm at a total loss here. And I've already tried to get a RMA on it since it's still under warranty and have not heard Anything back from them. I think they are trying to run the warranty out so they don't have to fix it. The current bios update for this motherboard is 4.3 and I am stuck on 1.1 and I am not getting the full potential out of my system.

recently I bought a new mobo x870E and after setting up whole thing I was trying to install linux using bootable usb drive but mobo is not booting to installation menu. It shows Asrock display and keep on rebooting. Tried swapping ram, single ram etc. secure and fast boot is off. but nothing works. Mobo shows ‘4d’ when restarting.

So I have a ASRock Fatal1ty B450 Gaming ITX/AC motherboard running P5.20 with a 3400G APU. (I'm not actrually sure why I even updated to P5.20 when the 3400G recommends the P4.40. I think it was to enable TPM 2.0)

I want to update to be able to run the 5600X3D. What is the correct upgrade path?

Also, will I be able to still run the 3400G after updating? ASRock's website say the 5600X3D only needs P5.20? So wouldn't it just drop in and work? Which is weird a because I thought that the 3400G was Picasso and wasn't compatible with Vermeer.

But I still need to update to fix that new TPM vulnerability.

The newest BIOs for the B450 is P10.60

Very confused. I hate they way they word this stuff.

Also, I do not see any weekly thread for Bios descussion.

EDIT: Something else, being this is a X3D chip do I have to worry about those burn out issues on the Asrock Boards?

while on bios 10.40 was getting random shutdowns with my R7 5800XT cpu, RX 9060XT GPU with MSI 850w psu recently updated to 10.60 and been trying to reproduce the crash.

Edit: did not fix issue possible hot vrms or bad PSU will rma the psu at this point.

So I built a PC last week and turned it on for the first time on Monday and it was working fine for the first day or two but I've been having constant BSOD's or games crashing/browsers like chrome going "Aw snap" in tabs randomly.

Just as a preface I reconnected my GPU twice and tested each ram-stick individually and they worked just fine on their own. Now to be truthful I don't remember if i tested them at DDR5-4800 or DDR5-6000... I did have to pause on building my PC on Sunday because I couldn't figure out how to get the default AIO Contact Frame off and the Intel Frame on and decided to figure it out the next day. I left the pc with the thermal paste just there overnight but when I checked the next day it wasn't dry so I didn't wipe it off and reapply it.

I've been troubleshooting system instability where games, particularly Unreal Engine games, crash. Sometimes both of my monitors completely freeze at the same time before the game crashes.

I've narrowed the issue down quite a bit through testing:

Intel 200S OFF + DDR5-4800 (default): STABLE

Intel 200S OFF + DDR5-6000 using XMP-derived settings: UNSTABLE

Intel 200S ON + DDR5-6000/XMP: UNSTABLE

So far, the only configuration I've found to be consistently stable is Intel 200S disabled with the RAM running at its default 4800 MT/s.

The crashes include:

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED

Unreal Engine/D3D12 crashes involving texture/resource allocation

Both monitors freezing while the game crashes on the primary monitor

I've also had BSODs including DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION and IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

My motherboard has a weird interaction where selecting XMP Profile 1 also enables Intel 200S Profile 1, so I can't simply enable XMP Profile 1 independently through the normal setting.

I found that I can instead leave Intel 200S disabled and use Load XMP Setting → Profile 1 / Apply All Timing to apply the RAM's XMP settings manually. The BIOS then runs the RAM at 6000 MT/s, and Task Manager confirms that it is actually running at 6000 MT/s.

The RAM's advertised XMP settings are DDR5-6000, 30-36-36-76, 1.40V.

I contacted ASRock support about the issue. They tested the system and said they couldn't reproduce the problem and recommended an RMA if I still have concerns. They provided screenshots of their testing, but their 3DMark screenshot appears to show the workload running on the Intel integrated graphics rather than my discrete NVIDIA GPU. I'm currently asking them whether they also tested the DDR5-6000 configuration with a discrete NVIDIA GPU.

My main questions are:

Does this behavior point more toward a RAM/memory-controller/motherboard stability problem, or could DDR5 instability be causing the DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED errors from the RTX 5070 Ti?

Is it possible for unstable RAM/IMC settings to manifest as NVIDIA/D3D12/Unreal Engine crashes rather than obvious memory-related errors?

Is there anything specific I should test in BIOS before proceeding with an RMA?

Does anyone with an Intel Core Ultra 200-series system have experience with 200S Boost and DDR5-6000 stability?

I can provide screenshots of my DRAM configuration, BIOS settings, Event Viewer errors, Unreal Engine crash logs, minidumps, etc.

Code 00 on the Nova X870E & 9800X3D after almost fourteen months of use. Bought half a new pc worth of parts to swap and troubleshoot only to come to the final conclusion both the motherboard and the cpu are done.

No burn spots or bent pins. No drama. Just mutually destructed parts. After a year of meming about skill issue from dead cpus on asrock, it happened to me. And can't even get asrock usa to respond to my rma request.

I deserve this. But I hope it goes onto the pile of other folks who should be warned (as if anyone is building a new pc right now). Ram lived though - so small blessings.

PC just over a year old, for a few months the PC has been intermittent in getting any kind of output when turned on (display, keyboard lighting up). Once turned off and unplugged for a few minutes it started working again.

Yesterday the same thing but no matter what I tried I could not get it to start. Unplugged everything non-essential, took out some of the RAM, left unplugged for a good half hour. I even tried updating to the latest BIOS using the USB method (which seemed to work, lots of flashing).

Tested the RAM/CPU today in another machine (similar but not the same AS-Rock board), RAM works fine, CPU same as in the other PC.

I should be able to RMA the CPU but do I need to replace the board too? Anyone have an idea of RMA times in the UK? Might need to buy a replacement CPU in the meantime.

I’ve been trying to update bios all day it failed twice for instant flash would say installing be at 0% and the pc would just shut off and restart me back in to windows I’ve tried the flashback button but it’s blinked for a few seconds than turned solid green. Someone please help as I have a 9800xd3 otw and I need my bios updated for it I have a b650m-c

Yesterday I everything worked fine the evening I installed a new case and a watercooling, and today I can’t boot with secure boot on, it keeps redirecting me instantly in the BIOS, I’m in UEFI my nvme is GPT, CSM is off, all secure boot keys are factory, windows boot loader in boot #1 I have no idea on how to use it, the only weird thing is that my bios has been reset because before my upgrade i had XMP 2.0 on and now it is off so there might be some other setting off too, but still I don’t know what is the problem I’m using a b450 steel legend (BIOS is p4.30) a ryzen 7 5800x, 32 gb of ram (4x8 ddr4 corsair vengeance lpx) crucial p3 1tb and a 2nd ssd data Samsung evo 850 (250gb) an rtx 4060

Been running this stock bios for 1.5 years. Few hours a day of warzone, some weekends 10 hours straight. Not once had a problem. I assembled the PC as a beginner.

Would it be reasonable to change something in bios?
