Hi all, I need help.
Trying to replace my Ryzen 3 2200g with a Ryzen 7 2700.
Note I also have a Radeon RX 580 (so I'm not dependent on the APU for display).
Here is my current build that will not POST: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pMth6s
When I power on, all fans start up, it seems to "rev" once or twice, and then it just stops doing anything. No Beeps. No display.
When I swap back in my Ryzen 3 2200g, everything works fine, get single beep on POST, BIOS comes up, then windows 10.
I have gone through most of the no boot system checklist (but because the system works great with the 2200g, I don't really think there is anything wrong with my system).
I tried removing the GPU and starting up (I know I won't get an display this way). But when I did I got one long beep and three short beeps, which depending on who you ask, for an American Megatrends AMI BIOS, either means memory or video problem.
I have tried single memory stick in all 4 slots.
I have updated my BIOS to version F40.
I've cleared CMOS before installing new CPU (removed battery for 30 minutes).
The most interesting/infuriating/unbelievable thing is the first time I tried to install the new processor, everything WORKED for 4-5 hours. I was playing No Man's Sky, the frame rates were glorious. The next morning I couldn't get it to start (I couldn't get anything to POST). I returned that cpu and got a replacement, and no POST. It's been a week now and I've tried everything and can't get it to POST. But the 2200g still works with no problems when reinstalled.
It seems like a compatibility problem, but everything I've read says the system is compatible. I wonder about APU -> CPU conversion but since video is running through GPU anyway I don't see why it should matter.
Please help, thanks.
