I got a ryzen 2600 today via Amazon to upgrade from ryzen 1200. After I put the new cpu in, the computer proceeds to power up and cycles a few times and stays at a blank screen. Monitor on, no power to my mouse and keyboard orher than the initial cycle. Fans stay spinning, no error code or anything.
Before I installed the new cpu I upgraded my bios to version 31 via gigabytes website anything past version 21 should be fine.
Specs.
Ryzen 1200
Gigabyte ab350m gaming 3
16 gigs ram 2400
Gtx 1660 super
450 power supply.
I've also tried a 750 power wat supply and same thing. Put everything back ( my original set up) and it started up fine, windows loaded up no issues.
Would this mean I got a faulty cpu? It did once load into bios but would just stay in the bios wouldn't load windows and almost made it seem like windows wasn't installed...which is obviously not right. I pretty much tried everything I can think of
Reset cmos
Tried one stick of ram
New power supply
Put everything back and it works fine. Only thing I can think of is the cpu?
But would a bad cpu load into bios? Even if it was just once?
