	Dear Quazine, Thanks for posting. Is there any other RGB software installed on the system? If there is kindly remove the third-party RGB software and try to flash the FW once again to check if the problem will be solved. If the problem persists, the RGB IC might need to be checked, kindly contact the store where the motherboard is purchased from for the further assitance. With thanks, ASRock TSD Edited by ASRock_TSD - 22 Jan 2021 at 3:16pm

	I don't see any asrock moderators on this forums, I have that error minutes before my pc went to sleep, and did not post anymore. I was scared to death thinking that motherboard broke down, then I cleared CMOS, and post back. now Im afraid the motherboard will break down at any point.

	Maybe a reflash of your RGB Chip will help or flash the bios again. For RGB Chip flash follow the steps please: 1. Uninstall the ASRock Polychrome and other RGB control program in Control Panel and make sure the ASRRGB folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\ASRock Utility\ is disappear. 2. Restart the PC and download the latest ASRock Polychrome utility from below link and install it. ASRock Polychrome RGB ver:2.0.80: https://download.asrock.com/Utility/RGB/PolychromeRGB(v2.0.80).zip 3. Type "CMD" in Windows search bar and right click to choose "Run as administrator". 4. Go to RGB app installation folder in Command Prompt by typing "cd C:\Program Files (x86)\ASRock Utility\ASRRGBLED\Bin" 5. Flash the RGB chip by using the following command "WriteFW.bat" After step 5, kindly wait for 30 seconds.

	I tried this, but when I clicked on RBG in the tools tab of advanced bios the screen froze. At first I thought it was loading, so I gave it 5 minutes but then realized it is frozen. I checked my MB and saw the error code "Ab". I restarted my computer to reply to you, and noticed the same: the rbg fans and motherboard do not light up, but my G.skill RBG ram is solid red and I still get error: 0xFFF0 when trying to open Polychrome

	Hi Quazine, go into your Bios, switch to tools/RGB and click write (maybe save) to MCU. Save and restart, the problem schould be solved.

	I am trying to reinstall polychrome because my last version got corrupted from malware. I uninstalled it completely and checked the Program Files and etc. to double check it was all gone. I now reinstalled polychrome and it gives me the error: "Error 0xFFF0: This MCU is empty! Please restart this utility!" My motherboard is an Asrock z490 Tachi. I have tried restarting my computer and turning off my PSU. I also have ran as admin and re-installed several times. Please help
