Question Asus Prime x670-E-Pro Wifi Boot failure on Cold Boot

[Stillent]

Hello Everyone,

I recently upgraded my Bios to version 3042 to patch out the AMD vulnerability, and proceed to use the system, except on cold boot the system would fail to post and I would see only the option to go onto bios and then start the system from there.

Looking around, I upgraded the BIOS to 3057 but the issue still remains.

The system doesn't seem to be behaving unusually outside of that situation. I don't overclock and the only change I made was enable my XMP in the BIOS after updating my Bios.

My Specs are:

Motherboard: Asus Prime x670-E-Pro Wifi
Cpu: AMD Ryzen 7 7800 x3d
Ram: G.SKILL TZ5E Neo RGB 6000 16Gx2 3038
GPU: Asus Tuff Rtx 4080 OC
PSU:Seasonic 1000w Vertex pcie5 PSU
Storage: Samsung Evo Ssd's

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks

Did you clear the CMOS after you'd verified that the BIOS was successfully flashed to the latest version? You're advised to disconnect from the wall and display, remove the CMOS battery, press and hold down the power button for 30secs to drain any residual power. Replace the CMOS battery after 30mins.

Do you have an expo ram option in the bios?

Hi Lutfji,

No I did not clear my CMOS. It seems like the battery is in a convenient plate to remove, but I see there is a clear cmos button on the MB, I assume it does the same thing no?

Regarding the settings what do I loose? Just the start up parameters?

Do you have an expo ram option in the bios?

Hello Bob.B,

Yes, the expo ram option is a drop down that appears when you boot into the Basic Bios and there is just a drop down to enable, although in the advance I think there were other options but I am not sure if those automatically change setting for you as well.

For what it is at the moment after I updated my bios I had also enables the Expo settings and then saved the changed it made with it selected as usual.
