[ijoin]

Hi
I just build pc with these spec
AMD ATHLON 200GE
ASROCK A320M-HDV with BIOS P5.10 (OCT 2018 UPDATE)
CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR4 LPX PC21000 2X4GB CMK8GX4M2A2666C16
GIGABYTE SSD 240 GB

Assembeld the whole system and connected it to dsub monitor, pc booted up, cpu fan works well, but no display output at all

Any help?

Hi, The CPU might require a BIOS update. Try contacting the retailer. See if they can help.

So, in the case if the bios is not updated it will only show no signal at all, just wonder
I read a post at a yt video and it's said that he didnt need to update the bios at all

oh and the packaging box, there is an AMD RYZEN DESKTOP 2000 READY sticker, I looked it up at google and found it means that the BIOS is the latest and support the newest APU chip


edit
just checked the bios version, found out it's p5.10 update (can find it on the board)
so its pretty new

What cable using for connecting the monitor? Have you tested with single RAM installed, and still no go?

I tested it with HDMI Monitor, single RAM, all the possibilities
Still no signal

Not sure about the issue, then. An option would be RMA-ing the board, if under warranty. Or, connecting a speaker to the board (if header available), or contacting a local pc store.

I also just built a 200GE system. I hadn't used AMD in a LONG time. My local Micro Center tech advised me that the 200GE is only supported by 400-series chipsets (B450 or X470). Unfortunately, A320 was not listed on the supported chipset list for the 200GE.
Are you able to get into the BIOS? Is it just Windows where the monitor goes blank?

Updated the Bios and it works well now

Great! Same thing worked for me... the box says "Ryzen 2000 ready" but that's a lie. Doesn't work without BIOS update.

I'm not sure which version worked for ijoin, but with my MSI B450M PRO-VDH I had to update BIOS to version E7A38AMS.M30 (12/21/2018).

i got mine to work , i had to two like three bios updates using a ryzen 5 processor , worked like a charm after

I have the same problem as the OP. Same CPU and Mobo. No video on VGA or HDMI.

Is there a way to flash the bios without video?

no, you need a processor that works on the board to do the flashing, i have to end up buying a ryzen 5 , because i had about 10 of those motherboards

God. Buying one CPU just to flash the mobo is not an option for me. I have to figure something out.

Thanks anyway.

sorry bro buts the only option since u gotta flash it from the gui in the bios

I see.

I was reading about it and it seems the problem is with the APU of the 200 GE. Plugging in a GPU or trying to flash it "blindly" by pressing F6 a few seconds after boot and "selecting" the bios version from the flash drive won't work, right?

I guess I will try to find someone who has a compatible CPU and I can borrow for this.

I made some USB flash tool to flash the BIOS
Want to share the file, but I can't find it anymore in my pc
Seems to be deleted since I found no use for it anymore
