[SOLVED] After updating my BIOS my motherboard got a red indicator light and is acting weird ?

[Rikusnobody]

Hey guys, I recently tried updating my motherboards BIOS (ROG Maximus X Hero (WI-FI AC)) by using the bios flashback (first time using bios flashback). The bios indicator finished flashing so I thought it was done. at this point, I noticed the motherboard was red and I thought that was weird. So I unplug the flash drive and started up the pc. It then tried to boot up multiple times but failed. After a couple of times, I plugged in the flash again, and then it started working. I check the bios again and it seems to have updated (to version 2503).

But, every time I shut down my pc the motherboard is still red. Also when I go to sleep I usually turn off my computer and my power supply ( so the RGB doesn't bother me at night). but I noticed that when I turn the power supply back on and then try to turn on my computer, the computer turns on for a second, and then off for another 2 seconds, and then finally turns on fully. the PC seems to run fine besides these issues, but I was wondering if anyone can help me or knows what seems to be the problem because it is really bothering me. Thanks

Also I tried reflashing the BIOS but it didn't do anything

First time posting here, so I'm not sure how these forums work

Hey there,

Did you clear CMOS after the bios updates? If not, do that and see if it fixes the issue.

All ASUS motherboards turn off, wait 2 seconds and turn back off after a complete power outage. I have the same motherboard, but I can't say I have any experience with a red LED on the motherboard. Which LED is it?

Here's the manual: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/...646_ROG_MAXIMUS_X_HERO_WI-FI_AC_UM_V2_WEB.pdf

Can you point out which LED is red?

Thanks for the help guys but I found out what it was. I found out it was because when I was updating the bios I was going through the bios and I noticed that my ram wasnt going at its full 3200mh. so I changed the setting to profile 1. This is what is causing the issue of my computer powering. I left it at 2900mh because the power up issued seem to have stop at that setting.
