No, the only way to update the BIOS is to have a processor that works with the existing BIOS rev. Ideal would be a 1st gen Ryzen. AMD do have an upgrade loaner program that you might look into. Other options are find someone to borrow a CPU from, or worst case buy a 1200 CPU, do the upgrade, then sell it.

Hi guys, thank you very much for your kind help. I have shorted CMOS for 7 hours. And then put memory in A2 slot (single memory). I tried this morning. It still does not work. Now the only thing I have not tried is the bios update. But how can i update the bios without getting the booting page? I have checked, this MB does not have flash bios button (physically). Is there any other way to do it? Thanks a lot!]]> Tue, 22 Oct 2019 23:06:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12712&PID=69226&title=asrock-b450-pro4-ryzen-5-3600-problem-help#69226 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12712&PID=69225&title=asrock-b450-pro4-ryzen-5-3600-problem-help#69225 Author: Xaltar

Make sure your GPU is properly seated. It is easy for it to pop up out of the
slot when bench testing if the board isn't elevated or on the edge of the table
etc. The PCI bracket extends lower than the board sits.

Only connect the GPU, power, CPU and one stick of RAM. Make sure all connections
are secure and you have an 8pin (4+4) power connector hooked up not a PCIe (6+2).

And sad that there is not much too see.
- I cannot really see a video cable at the graphics card
- I cannot see a keyboard connected
- But i can see: RAM is placed in A1/B1 instead of A2/B2

You should try it with one stick in A2 first.
And than make a CMOS Reset and restart.
And wait, wait, wait, longer as you think you have to wait.
If nothing changes after several minutes (say max. 15 min), it is probably what gizmic already posted: Bios too old for the Ryzen 5 3600]]> Tue, 22 Oct 2019 14:52:43 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12712&PID=69222&title=asrock-b450-pro4-ryzen-5-3600-problem-help#69222 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12712&PID=69219&title=asrock-b450-pro4-ryzen-5-3600-problem-help#69219 Author: gizmic

Please see the video I posed on the youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymQ2ONKB_N4

The symptom is: CPU and power supply keep rebooting but there is nothing displaying on the monitor after I jump the "power on" two pings. We have tested the memory with another system, they are fine. We have tried three power supplies. Same thing. We have returned and replaced both CPU and motherboard. Still the same. What can be wrong? Please advise. Thanks a lot!

Btw, the CPU fan is just a temp solution.It is small but has four pin connector and was a CPU fan for some old system.

Right now we are using on-board HDMI for display but I have tried the dedicated video card, no difference.

Also there is no hard drive connected but that does not matter, since at least we should see the booting page and bios.

Did we miss something stupid??? This happened to anyone here?

Please help! Thanks a lot! ]]> Tue, 22 Oct 2019 08:43:05 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12712&PID=69200&title=asrock-b450-pro4-ryzen-5-3600-problem-help#69200
