Well, recently I have bought a B450m steel legend motherboard to pair with my ryzen 5 2600x. Everything was fine, but I decided to do a stupid thing, update the bios.
The process was ok, and it told me that the bios have successfully updated then restart my pc. That is when thing gone wrong. It does not post anymore. All I got is 3 short beeps then pause for a little bit and followed by 3 more short beeps. After that it will not do anything more, no boot, no restart. what is wrong with it? And can I fix it myself or I have to send it back to where I bought it?

Reset the jumper to CMOS.
If this does not help, try it with a RAM latch only.
The first start after a BIOS update may take a moment.

If you set the clear jumper from the CMOS, you don't have to wait hours. A few minutes will do.

Just do a RAM in A2 and then test it.

Did you flash through windows or use instant flash? If a windows flash the board is probably bricked

I used instant flash. RGB Led still on, cpu still heating up when I turn it on.

Do not forget that to REALLY clear the CMOS, you als need to disconnect from the wall power.

As in physically disconnecting the powercable, and wait until all the merry leds on the motherboard have darkened. And then apply the jumper and wait some minutes.
