I replaced the Ryzen 3600 with the Ryzen 5700X3D. Bios version 5.01, but the processor was determined and the system started. I decided to update the BIOS to the required 10.10, just in case. The motherboard turned into a brick. Why did Asrok post a broken BIOS a year ago and does nothing?
Now I'm buying a programmer and trying to bring the motherboard back to life.
This applies to the x470 Taichi

Just adding to this mess.

Was on 5.10 yesterday and today board is bricked. Set bios to default and disabled tpm.

Debug code not showing, just power cycling. Used Asrock for a long time but this is a bit of a joke for a stable bios release.

Sent a ticket in, let's see what they say - it's out of warranty obviously but I wouldn't consider this a warranty related issue, it's more incompetence.]]> Tue, 17 Sep 2024 05:52:16 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=147966&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#147966 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=117040&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#117040 Author: Maverickcdn

Thanks to @Termy and @upintheclouds for sharing their experience. Makes one feel better when you're not the only one experiencing an issue

I tried externally flashing 10.11 and still had no post but after reverting back to 8.01 Im back in business.

I suppose if anything this gave me a chance to tear down the system for cleaning maintenance.]]> Wed, 17 Apr 2024 22:53:06 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=117040&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#117040 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=117009&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#117009 Author: Termy

I had already found a dealer that flashed my board for 20 bucks, so i guess i got lucky there - thanks for the offer though @upintheclouds ! :)

I've now got 10.11 running and it seems fine, but of course i don´t know if they did anything special to get 10.11 running. At least they didn´t mention anything.

The fact that i´m not the only one affected deals a pretty big blow to my trust in Asrock though :/]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2024 16:49:14 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=117009&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#117009 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116968&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116968 Author: Maverickcdn

Thanks for the reply, bought a clip and CH341a w/1.8v on Amazon and gonna give it a try. Assuming you just used the 8.01 bios file from the Asrock site?

Its been a while since I've used a serial/eeprom flash tool but I think I can handle it]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2024 07:39:24 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116968&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116968 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116965&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116965 Author: upintheclouds

It's come in handy a few times in the past when I changed BIOS without disabling RAM OC and got some bad bits programmed in, so keep that in mind when comparing a chip programmer to the cost of RMA shipping and/or a new board. ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2024 01:08:31 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116965&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116965 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116956&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116956 Author: Maverickcdn

I too have a bricked motherboard after updating 8.01 to 10.11

When using FlashCat was desoldering required?

Have a ticket started with them, see how long it takes to get a response]]> Sun, 14 Apr 2024 10:14:46 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116956&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116956 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116944&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116944 Author: upintheclouds

I just want to share that I have had the same experience with the 10.X releases of the x470 Taichi Ultimate BIOS. I have tried all of 10.01, 10.10 and 10.11, and each one results in a completely bricked board, which boot loops infinitely and does not even produce POST codes. Clearing CMOS, re-seating or replacing RAM and CPU does nothing. This is happening with a 3700X, 3900X, and 5800X3D, so the problem is not down to using an older gen CPU, as advised against on the BIOS release notes. When I performed the update, I ensured that all BIOS versions were set to defaults, but fTPM was disabled. If there's some other step I missed, let me know, but im o these all seem very, very broken.

I have a FlashCat, and reverted to BIOS 8.01 successfully and this allows the board to boot again. This has proven to be my only option. I am disappointed, because I was hoping to see if these newer releases include Core Optimizer configuration, but they are utterly unusable.

Asrock, did you even test these? Is there some bridge version which I should be flashing between 8.01 and 10.X which you've since revoked? How dare you publish 3 broken BIOS versions for a board which is now out of warranty for almost all users?!

Termy, I would hope that they could offer you an option to re-flash your board back to a working version, considering that their last 3 published updates are completely broken. If not, you can DM me and I'll flash yours back to a working version for free. ]]> Sat, 13 Apr 2024 02:18:42 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116944&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116944 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=34491&PID=116807&title=x470-taichi-bricked-after-update-to-10-10#116807 Author: Termy

Hi,
yesterday i updated my x470 Taichi from UEFI 5.10 to 10.10.
Everything seemed normal, no errors and the "reboot with enter" at the end.
Unfortunately, after that the PC doesn´t post anymore.
It's stuck in a bootloop, the debug code segment display doesn't show anything.
I tried CMOS-Reset on the Backpane, that didn't help, then i tried removing the CMOS Battery for 4 hours and setting the CLRCMOS jumper, that had the small effect that now the CPU-Fans start up again. But still no post, no debug code or anything.
A real shame that this board doesn't yet have a flashback function :(

Is there any hope that the support might help me with this in an acceptable timeframe or is it not worth bothering filing a ticket?

In any case, at the very least i wanted to let others know that 10.10 might be a bit of a gamble.
