I have an issue currently, I have a long post but since its just a reply here, I will just post TDLR: ASRock X870E Nova WiFi stuck at A6 (SCSI Detect) after EXPO issues ??passes RAM training, now halts at storage init (Ryzen 7 9800X3D) TL;DR: Built a new system with Ryzen 7 9800X3D + ASRock X870E Nova WiFi. It booted fine at stock, but after enabling EXPO the board began hanging at memory codes (41??3). After multiple CMOS clears and BIOS reflashes (latest + 3.06), the system now always halts at A6 (SCSI Detect) even with all drives and peripherals removed. POST code sequence shows it passes CPU and RAM init successfully. Feels like a storage controller/chipset issue. Looking for advice before I RMA. |

Try BIOS 3.40 before you RMA. You may want to RMA the CPU along with the board to be safe if the BIOS update doesn't resolve the issue. -------------
