Asrock B550am gaming
AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
48 GB Ballistix DDR 4 ram
Ryzen 7 3800x (orig cpu)
Computer was running fine. I installed a brand new Ryzen 7 5800X CPU. System would not boot. Lights come on fans run for about 10 to 15 seconds then the system shuts down and does the same thing over and over but never boots.
I checked my connections, made sure the CPU fan power was connected correctly to the mobo, cleared the CMOS according to the instructions, re-seated the ram, checked the processor pins for damage, I even reinstalled the old processor, and it still does the same thing.
it feels like I've screwed something up. I just have no idea what it could be. I've done this dozens of times over the years and honestly have never had an issue like this. I'm scratching my head. Any ideas?
