I have the same issues you have (had) since updating to bios 4.00. Every bios version before did not have any of the aforementioned issues. Looks to me like Asrock broke something with the newest bios version but since its not really a "big problem" i am just going to let it be and wait for the next bios update.
Just for completion: x570 taichi 3900x 64gb trident z |

Thanks so much for this suggestion. It worked. The following was the results of my testing starting from the oldest version of the BIOS that supports 5000 series CPU to the latest version.
3.4 - worked for non XMP profile. Does not allow saving of XMP profile shows D0 error and reboots and then forces the DRAM to auto mode 3.61 - works and seems stable for XMP and Non XMP profile 3.8 - works and seems stable for XMP and Non XMP profile 4.0 - Failed causes a reboot The weird thing is i had tested with version 3.8 before and it had not worked. I guess i had to go through the BIOS upgrade in the right sequence and not jump directly. However the light issue has still not resolved, but i dont care about that anymore. At least the power cycling issue is solved. So i guess I will stick with version 3.8 for now. Once again thanks for the suggestion. |

Maybe flashback to the oldest BIOS which supports 5000 series, and then flash them one by one to the latest.
I'm running out of ideas here Also, my power/reset buttons on motherboard (x570 taichi) are off while PC is running. When I flip the PSU switch, power/reset button continuously flash (slowly). However they do light up when I press power button, and obviously I have no double restart |

I tried what you suggested. Kept the XMP profile to Auto and set the freq to 2133. The issue still continues.
Any ideas on how to reset the BIOS completely. Because i have a feeling its related to the BIOS as the problem seems to be related to the BIOS flashback process. Remember in addition to the power cycle issue which is the major point. There is another minor issue of the power and reset button lights not coming on when i press the power button. |

Try leaving XMP profile to auto, and set memory speed to something silly low, like 2133Mhz. Then save BIOS settings and shut down the PC. Cold start it and see if you're still getting same issue.
memory training fails specifically identified, that was my guess. Unfortunately Asrock does not give us an option to set Pre-POST DRAM voltage, which can help with training issues. |

How do i identify this ? I tried memtest and it is fine reports no errors. I checked the timings in the BIOS and that also seems to at the rated value. It also matches the value the system shows once windows is booted.

Cold boot double POST might be due to unstable memory or failing RAM training on post :)

When the D2 Code came there was nothing connected to the motherboard only the CPU, 1 RAM stick and Graphics card and PSU. But the error was resolved by updating BIOS using the BIOS Flashback Button. But that created its own set of issues which i mentioned in the post.

D2 code is PCH initialization error. That can be anything from SSD/HDDs to USBs.
Maybe board does not like all the bells and whistles coming with other parts. Try removing everything except CPU, GPU and 1 stick or RAM in second slot from CPU and then cold boot to see if you still get this issue. Does BIOS lose its settings on cold boot by any chance? D2 code has been unanswered mystery throughout the years, from what I can search. |
