I'm looking to upgrade my 2700X to a 5800XT and need guidance on how to update my bios properly and in what order. Currently running 5.6]]> Wed, 19 Nov 2025 07:59:31 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=200449&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#200449 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199291&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199291 Author: maui5150

Maybe it is my memory as well. - I currently am just running 16GB of slower 2400 as well - G.Skill as well - but will upgrade in the near future to 32GB of slightly faster 2933 I think or it is 3000/3200 or runs slightly under - It is on the QVL so.

I wound up leaving CSM on, and went the Rufus route with MBR/BIOS instead of forcing GPT/UEFI, and was able to boot and do a fresh install and up and running.

This is more of a backup Win 11 box for me, where I can run software that requires Win 11 (Turbo Tax) etc.

My main machine is getting 5+ yrs old, so I will probably do a bigger full build, maybe a multi-boot ]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2025 03:20:24 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199291&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199291 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199290&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199290 Author: Chi_Bear

I figured it out. I had 32 gb of ram (4 x 8 GB), originally 2 x 8gb G Skill DDR4 3600 CL-16-19-19-39. Then I wanted to upgrade to 32 gb and could not find the same speed and got G Skill DDR4 2400 CL 16-16-16-39. So I took out the DDR4 2400 chips and it let me disable the CSM. I am going to do my secure boot now and if it allows that I will then try to add the DDR4 2400 back in and see what happens. I booted into Windows 11 and all is good for now. I checked MSINFO32 and it shows secure boot is on!]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2025 02:37:47 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199290&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199290 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199289&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199289 Author: maui5150

Same for me - X370 Taichi with Ryzen 5 3600 and running 5.60 BIOS]]> Tue, 28 Oct 2025 00:34:22 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199289&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199289 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199244&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199244 Author: Chi_Bear

Hi,

I have an X370 Taichi that I am not able to disable CSM mode so that I can set Secure Boot. I have another X370 and was able to do it with that one so I am knowledgeable with the process. Every time I set CSM to disable the BIOS will freeze when I go back into it. I was able to get an update push from Microsoft for Windows 11 and install it but I know I really need to setup secure boot. I only have one drive attached, Samsung 970 EVOPlus M.2 1tb. It's formatted GPT. The BIOS has UEFI mode set, TPM 2.0 is set as per TPM.msc and AMD ftpm switch is set. I am running BIOS 7.3 and I upgraded the CPU to Ryzen 7 5800X. If I disconnect the M.2 and set the CSM to disable it will still freeze. So is there anything else I can try?]]> Tue, 21 Oct 2025 23:52:43 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=113365&PID=199244&title=x370-taichi-csm-issue#199244
