[SOLVED] GT 1030 2GH LP OC not being detected by B450M PRO-VDH MAX motherboard.

[pfeagin]

My motherboard isn't detecting a VGA signal and a boot device signal, I am frustrated as the card is in the computer properly but it just isn't being detected.

full system spec? include make and model of the psu

was it working before?

 

[pfeagin]

The PSU is a CX 450M from Corsair. The graphics card never has worked with this motherboard as its a new motherboard.

 

[rgd1101]

If the system is new. how do you know it is not detected? still waiting for full system spec

Full system specs.

I figured out that it is not detecting it by the EZ Debug LED on the Motherboard, the CPU and the RAM are lighting up, but the VGA is lighting up dull yellow, and the boot is not lighting up at all.

i would guess your MB needs a bios update for that chip

 

[pfeagin]

What would I have to do in that case?

How would I update the bios?

How would I update the bios?

get a cpu that works in the mobos chipset stock to see what that cpu may be conact msi

For some reason the motherboard is not detecting the graphics card, I can tell by the EZ debug light which lights up as detecting the CPU and the RAM, but not the VGA and the boot device. I think that at this rate I may just need a new graphics card, but I am not sure, I would like to make sure that this is the case, and that the graphics card would work, as I am on a strict budget. I don't have any spare parts lying around the house either.

Where are you plugging in the monitor?

You have the 3200G which is basically as good as the 1030. Just try using that right now.

There an issue when it light up, not it is working

Be careful upgrading the bios. Depending on which you choose you could lose all support for any Ryzen 1xxx or 2xxx chips. If the debug light is good is try the igp first. Not saying it's not the bios, but you should be warned what can happen BEFORE you do it.

Putting the mod hat on for a second, stop opening new threads. You need one thread per issue. You are getting help, relax with the new threads ok?

How would I enable the integrated graphics of the computer?

How would I enable the integrated graphics of the computer?

I took out the graphics card and plugged the HDMI cable into the motherboard's HDMI slot. the VGA on the EZ debug light was yellow again, meaning I think it isn't even detecting the integrated graphics.

If it doesn't boot with that cpu installed and you are sure everything is plugged in correctly, then it does appear it needs a bios update. The 4xx chipset works with the ryzen 2xxx cpus "out of the box." It will work with the ryzen 3xxx, but only with the newest bios. Updating to that level will remove support for the ryzen 2xxx and below. It will never work with those cpus again.

You would need a ryzen 1xxx or 2xxx cpu to boot it. Read the manual.
