5 beeps and d6 indicate no GPU detected. If you can, try another GPU. The display
outputs on the board will only work with an APU (APUs tend to end in "G" like the
3000g or 2200g etc).

The fact that you are getting the d6 error means the board, CPU and RAM are working
as they should. The GPU initialization can't take place unless they are. You may
also want to try your GPU in another system, it may have been damaged by a faulty
PSU. I hope not for your sake though ]]> Fri, 30 Sep 2022 23:49:28 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24948&PID=101425&title=b550-steel-legend-wont-boot#101425 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24948&PID=101424&title=b550-steel-legend-wont-boot#101424 Author: Kyrosyves

Small update:
I tried booting with only HDMI cable in motherboard, CPU (3700x), and RAM installed. Still same 5 short beeps + d6 error.]]> Fri, 30 Sep 2022 21:59:37 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24948&PID=101424&title=b550-steel-legend-wont-boot#101424 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24948&PID=101423&title=b550-steel-legend-wont-boot#101423 Author: Kyrosyves

Hi all,

I had this configuration for almost 2 years:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
ASRock B550 Steel Legend
Corsair Vengeance 32Gb Ddr4 3200Mhz?
GIGABYTE AORUS?Gen4 SSD, 1 TB SSD
Gigabyte GP-P750GM

Last week the PC wouldn't boot up and LEDs were acting funny. Looked like a PSU issue but after testing thought it was Motherboard issue. It was under warranty so got Motherboard replaced and ended up replacing the PSU with the Corsair 750 RM. Plugged everything back in, and now I'm getting 5 short beeps and the d6 error.

I tried:
- A different CPU (3700x from my brother's PC, I know for 5900 series need a BIOS update)
- Checking CPU pins on 3700x and 5900x, both seem fine (CPU seems to get warm when booting)
- Using different HDMI/DisplayPort cables
- Removed the motherboard battery
- Checked all power cables

Any suggestions on next steps?
