Building a new build now running into issues getting the red cpu debug light on motherboard and no post.
These are my parts:
1.1 - downloaded the BIOS update from the compatibility AMI BIOS 7D67v13 which is compatible with the 7959x from MSI on a fat32 32gb usb also tried on another USB drive still nothing. unzipped and changed the file to MSI.ROM
1.2 plugging into the bios flash drive port while only connecting cpu, and atx cables. Still cpu light even after 30-40 mins of waiting.
2- reseating the cpu checked for any bent pins. None that I see. Still no post.
3- checked if the ram was faulty placing in A1,2 and B1,2 individually with each stick. I just checked the ram I ordered was intel xmp optimized, I ordered the AMD expo optimized DDR5 same ram type just AMD version. Tried again still nothing.
4-reset the cmos battery and jump start waited 20 mins. Tried again for a whole night. Still a cpu debug light.
5- I did just use my current working build psu 750w Corsair RM750x 80+ gold certified thinking the cables are the issues but still getting red CPU light.
Hoping it’s not a defective cpu, or motherboard dont want to go through the hassle, but looks like I might have to. Read online that MSI mb takes a couple tries to update the bios trying multiple times with the correct bios. Still red CPU light.
Was able to get in my bios for once I changed the xmp profile for the ram which is probably where it messed up, this was before getting my 7900xtx after I inserted started getting the cpu debug light.
Not sure what else to do. Is there something that I might have done wrong?
Is there any other fix other than replacing CPU or motherboard? I dont have another Zen4 CPU to check if the CPU is at fault.
