Built my PC and it worked fine. Got windows running and used it for about an hour then screen went black and it will no longer post. When I turn on the PC the lights and fans turn on but the screen stays black. (Not a monitor problem I checked) the CPU and dram red LED lights come on for a second then the boot light comes on and stays on. Any idea how to fix this?

| Going to try and rebuild outside the case to make sure nothing is shorting. If not I have the replacement plan on the motherboard so I can get it replaced. |

Hey, The same thing literally happened to me on that board with 3600x. Did you figure it out? |

| I realize this is really late but I just "solved" it. At first I replaced the motherboard but there was no change. I then sent the cpu back to AMD for an RMA. It just got back to me now and the pc is working. |

| Had the same problem, first I got a blue screen of death, rebooted, worked fine for a couple seconds, then PC locked up. Rebooted again and that Boot light came on, Tried resetting cmos, changing mem slots checked all plugs and connections. nothing fixed it. A few weeks ago I upgraded the Junk HP memory that came with the PC to Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x16 GB 3200 MHz. Worked fine until today. after trying all kinds of stuff I swapped back to the 16GB HP memory and it booted up just fine. |

Have the same issue. Recieved the motherboard + AMD Ryzen 5 1600. I have one stick of 32GB RAM. When I hooked up everything the computer worked for several hours. I installed Ubuntu 20.04 normally, everything worked. After returning to the PC several hours later the display was blank. Upon several resets I checked the MB and found this red BOOT led. I sent a request to the seller, I will probably have to return this MB + CPU. But I hate going through this hassle if it can maybe me solved another way. Attempted so far: - removed all hard drives - tried with another PSU - switched RAM to different slot - tried another 4GB DDR4 ram stick in multiple slots from another computer - tried removing the cmos battery for 30 minutes - tried re-seating the CPU - upon removing the heatsink I can say that the thermal paste was perfectly applied the first time Any other ideas maybe? And I am really curious what could have caused this. To have everything work perfectly and then just dies. Maybe something overheated and permanently damaged the CPU or MB? But why a BOOT LED, why not a CPU LED. So strange... |

Replying to myself. Tested CPU on another motherboard. Also doesnt work. Tested another CPU on this motherboard and it works. Verdict, CPU died, will be returned. Defective I guess... |
