Hello, I recently purchased the i9 9900k to upgrade from my i5 9600k. My computer (fans and power) will turn on with the i9 in but then shortly there after will power back off with no BIOS or anything shown on the monitor. I put the i5 back in and it turned on right away no problems.

I have the ASROCK Z390 PRO 4 mother board. My BIOS says it is at version 1.45 in the APP I downloaded from the website but it says version 4.40 is available. When I go to install 4.40 with the APP it doesnt work. My computer restarts and makes alot of nasty noises when I do.

Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions to get my i9 to work properly?
