Hello everyone,

I went to turn my pc on today and I had no image, (PC was working fine yesterday) so I tried the good old on/off and still wasn’t working.

I opened up the pc and turned it on to find the red cpu indicator solid red. After doing some research I checked my cpu connections, checked my ram was seated, checked my gpu was properly seated, and tried it again, still the solid red CPU light.

I then took my NH-D15 Cooler off and put it back on and I got a solid orange dram light. So I fiddled around with the ram changing slots, running on 4 or 2 or even just 1.

But now I’m getting an orange d ram light on boot for 5 seconds and a solid red cpu light after that and still no image. I have also just tried resetting cmos (taking out the battery and replacing it) and I did try resetting the bios using bios flash back but I don’t think it worked properly so I can try again but format my usb if that could be the issue.

The ram I have is 4x vengeance 16gb 3600 I had some issue when I first got the ram as 2 sticks have different timings but after changing slots around it worked with the full 32gb and had been working ever since up to now.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Specs:
Rog x570-f gaming
Ryzen 7 5800x
32 GB vengeance ram
Msi 3070
Rmx1000x psu

Tried just one stick on the A2 slot? The A2 slot is the second from the cpu out.

This also means you use the latest bios? Since it might not have worked, did you rename the unpacked file on the FAT32 formatted usb disk?

Before running the USB flashback tool,please rename the BIOS file (SX570FG.CAP) using BIOSRenamer"
