I have it in a thumb drive but said can’t find image?You need to go to the link I included (see below) and find the board in the OEM list, and download the BIOS version posted there. The most current version appears to be 8.01 for the B450M Pro4-CB board.

You need to flash the BIOS with your old CPU in it, then swap your new chip in.
Thanks, i was on a 64gb, dusted off an old 4 and worked, i'm on 8.01just gotta wait on the cpu to come in now. wil update.Did you unzip the file on the USB drive? It will not recognize the file otherwise.
If so, then it may be a naming convention - I seem to remember the issue with this, but I cannot remember the solution.
Just to make sure, a checklist:
1. Make sure you are downloading the correct BIOS file from the list (I assumed you had the same board)
2. Unzip the file into the root of a FAT32 formatted USB drive
Worst case scenario, you need a higher version than the one you have, but still not the one posted. Annoyingly, ASRock does not post all the old versions here. You might need to seek those out.
