" rel="nofollow - I updated to new bios 3.1 last night through the bios tool. Now i cant post. The Dr Debug code is 4f. Clearing cmos and trying different ram does not help. Is my only option to rma? Any ideas would be welcome. |

No. It loaded the update then it rebooted after it was finished and it never made it to post. Stuck at 4f.

Well, the seeming good news is you shouldn't need to tear your loop out. 4f is relating to memory But what you're going to need to do is ........... 1. Make sure you memory is FULLY seated in slots A2 and B2. Pull them and reseat each. Clear BIOS and test Also please state which memory you have please. Heck, post you system specs please. Post back after reseating and clearing the BIOS please. I'm not 100% sure that will get you up and running but this is the first diagnostic step. |

michaelpinkava, if you can boot into the BIOS, please hit F9 to Load UEFI Defaults then Exit and Save. If can get into BIOS but F9 does not help, then use Instant Flash to go back to your working BIOS. Do an F9 plus Exit and Save. Do not load any saved configurations or set any overclock.

I tried this with no success. I even pulled the cmos battery. I tried each ram individually in the a2 slot. My memory was stable before the bios flash and is on the qvl 1800x, gskill F4-3200C14D-32GTZR, evga 1080ti ftw 3, samsung 960 pro m2 ssd I was running everything stock. The ram was running xmp profile timings at 2933. Thank you for your responses. |

I am not able to make it that far. I do not not make it far enough in post to activate usb for my keyboard. I tried rebooting and mashing f6 hoping to catch instant flash. Thank you for your response.

michaelpinkava, glad to try helping, sorry has not been effective. Please post the length (Properties, in bytes) and the hash codes for the BIOS file you used. Perhaps you got a bad DL. ASRock should always post hash codes for all their DLs. Thanks and enjoy, John. EDIT: My hash codes:

michaelpinkava, sorry. My only suggestion is to cantact ASRock. Please tell us if you did not use Instant Flash.

I just updated (attempted to) to 3.0 using Instant Flash and I'm having the same issue. My system had been working since late June without issue. I have the same gskill memory specs that you do but the model is slightly different. 1700X Samsung 960 EVO m.2 SSD GSkill F4-3200C14D-32GTZKW Radeon RX480 Sound Blaster Zx I tried reseating the memory and also tried using 1 stick in A2 (tried both sticks in A2 to no avail) Reseated RX480 Reseated SB Zx ( Tried resetting the CMOS using the button, it failed. Tried resetting the CMOS by unplugging the system, moving the jumper, and removing the CMOS battery (tried 10 minutes, tried 30 minutes), it failed. My last gasp is letting it sit for 4 hours for a CMOS reset, but I'm not holding out much hope that it will work. I don't believe I had upgraded the BIOS since mid-July. I wanted to update to the latest version, and it recommended I upgrade to at least 3.0 and then use the Windows Flash utility to upgrade to the latest BIOS version. What ended up being your issue? How did you resolve it? Thanks!
