ive got a aorus b550 elite v2 i down loaded the bios for it put it on a usb drive flashed the board bare using the button on back now the graphics card fans no longer spin when pluged in to the board but they do on another board. ive also got got a msi b450 i down loaded the bios for it now it doesnt seem do do anything
im doing this to allow a ryzen 7 5000 cpu to work on it .

Conclusion, the BIOS upgrade may not have completed and you've bricked the Aorus B550. Alternatively. the Ryzen 5700 might be dead or incompatible.

ive also got got a msi b450 i down loaded the bios for it now it doesnt seem do do anything
Likewise, either you've bricked the MSI B450 too, or again, the 5700 is dead or not compatible.

I'd be inclined to try another CPU (and not a 5700).

I only run a "blind" BIOS update as a last resort. I like to monitor progress and any error messages when updating the BIOS. I even bought a cheap APU one time in case my 3800X wasn't supported.
