X570 Steel Legend BIOS update

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   So I finally got my X570 Steel Legend to boot.  Problem was the video card (ASRock RX 5700).

As I am running a Ryzen 3600X, I updated the BIOS to 1.7 via Easy Update.  The update appeared to go normally but now I am in a boot loop. Have tried clearing the CMOS but no joy so far.

I know the old first gen Ryzens would go through this multiple reboot thing but I haven't heard about the gen 3 Ryzens doing this.

Suggestions?

	The post status checker is red. I haven't changed any hardware. The manual doesn't give any indication of how to read the PSC.

	Wow, this is a cranky motherboard. Reflashed to v1.7 and got into BIOS. The CPU is burning up so going to figure that out next.

	Wow, think I am over the hump now. Got Windows 10 x64 installed. Boot still slow, board blinks and flashes like crazy. I hope it figures out the hardware at some point and has a faster boot. The ASRock X570 motherboard just doesn't like the ASRock RT5700. I have tried the graphics card in my ASRock X470 and it boots just fine. Put it in the X570 and we get a non-starter. I have an 8 prong and 6 prong power plugged into the graphics card. Suggestions?
