Question Red CPU light flashes on mobo, then BIOS loads ?

[Jvill99]

Hey everyone, My PC boots and then the red CPU light flashes then it loads me into BIOS after it tries to boot up. I updated my bios to most recent update , made sure my cpu had no bent pins. Kinda dumbfounded on what it could be. Thank you.

Mobo: Asus ROG Strix B-550 Wifi
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600x 6-Core processor

Is that the ROG Strix B550-F wifi motherboard? If so, when you did the BIOS update, did you follow all the instructions like, ''Before running the USB BIOS Flashback tool, please rename the BIOS file (RB550FGW.CAP) using BIOSRenamer?'' Also, what GPU are you using?

 

[Jvill99]

Yes, when i flashed Bios I made sure to watch a tutorial and did all that step by step. The gpu I am currently using is Asus TUF gaming GeForce gtx 1650. Bios reads my CPU and but for some reason it doesn’t want to boot :/

Have you tried just using 1 RAM stick (and try in different slots,) to see if it will boot?

Also, is your boot drive from a different build with windows already on it?

 

[Jvill99]

I only have one stick inserted and that’s in the B2 slot. Haven’t tried different slots but will give it a go. I’ve always had the one stick and never problems. I reseated it multiple times and made sure no dust or little fabrics. I will have to check that about the boot drive. Haven’t really messed around with the bios setting/ or bios in general but will check and see about that. How would I go about that?

I mean, what do you have windows loaded up on, a usb? Have you installed/are you planning on having windows as your operating system ?

I had installed Windows with a USB drive and yes, windows 10 was my most recent os.
