I'll check for a bridge BIOS update. As when I updated BIOS I just went for the latest version. I didn't think about needed to go for an older one first. That's a good shout. The pc boots and runs as normal with the old CPU. No power supply issues or any other failing parts.

Thanks, yes I do have a 3060 and when connected to my monitor through the GPU and with the old CPU installed it works perfectly. I only have the issue when I put the new CPU in I'll take a closer look at the new CPU and it's pins when I get up. It was brand new sold and shipped by Amazon.

Thanks, I'm sure I did try it with the GPU connected but I may try this one more time before returning the CPU.

Hi all, I'm trying to upgrade the CPU in my pc but running into issues. My current CPU is the Ryzen 5 3400G. I wanted to get a better CPU and decided to go for the Ryzen 7 5800X which was the best compatible CPU I could get according to PC Part Picker. I also checked the AMD web page and it...

Thank you, that worked perfectly and makes total sense! Coinsidentally does that mean if I ever put the old drive back in will if still affect the larger drive or is it just an issue on the first reboot?

Thanks, I'll try that. I did try rebooting without the original drive but I tried leaving it in first so that might be the issue. I'll post back here with how I get on.

I apologise if this has been answered elsewhere but every answer I've seen so far doesn't help my situation. I have a 500gb Samsung M.2 drive installed in one slot on my motherboard. In the second slot I have just added a crucial 2tb M.2 drive. I want to migrate the windows install over to...

I've checked the light on all four ports. They are all showing as 100mbps (yellow). It seems like something is going on with the cable that runs through the walls. Although it's brand new and works fine with the old switch I'm not getting lights at the receiving end at all with either the old...

I will take a look at the tester though too. Thanks

Thank you, I should have said above also though that I put the old POE back and the speed is straight back up to 250mbps. This makes me think it's not the cables as the only change is the box itself.

I recently picked up a TL-SG1005P network switch as my router didn't contain enough ethernet ports. I also need power over ethernet (POE) to send internet to my office on the other side of the house. I had a single ethernet POE before and this would send my 250mbps signal over to my office no...

Yep, uninstalled the GPU and the pc booted after reseating the ram. This was the pc using integrated graphics and only mouse and keyboard plugged in. But I plugged my other usb peripherals in, usb hub, webcam etc (GPU still disconnected) and the fault arose again. So it can't be the GPU or PCI...

UPDATE! Hi all, I resat the ram and good news, the pc booted up! I had to remove my gpu to get to the ram but it worked. New issue though, when I put the pc back together and plug the gpu in. Everything stops working again until I resit the ram.. Any thoughts? Still PSU? No enough power...

Thanks guys, I did check the ram earlier to make sure it was in properly but I'll try testing one at a time to see what I get.
