Subject: black UEFI screen
Date Posted: 11 Aug 2019 at 11:02pm
Today i updated my B450 Steel Legend from factory v2.32 to the latest V2.70 to hopefully solve the few blue screens i would randomly get.

Now if i try to enter the UEFI screen, all i am returned with is a black screen and unable to do anything, i have to restart the PC.

I have tried F2 and Delete, I also tried using F6 and tried tricking going through the instant flash menu which still gave me the black screen.

Is anyone else having this issue?

With the only way to update will be through UEFI it seems i may be stuck!What makes things worse i haven't got XMP activate!!!AGGGHHHH

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. My specs are as below.

B450 Steel Legend
Ryzen 3700x
16gb corsair vengence DDR4 3200
RTX 2070

Do a CMOS reset.
If this does not help, try with only one RAM stick.

Thankyou for your suggestions. Tried a CMOS reset. And tried with one stick of ram. Neither have fixed it. So strange as it boots to windows fine without a hitch just cannot get into UEFI!

Hmm, some blind try:
Go to your black bios on startup with F2 or Del.
F9 for loading defaults, wait a bit, F10 for save and exit.
