" rel="nofollow - DanCR4, what version is your BIOS? Should be on a sticker on the board. Do you have the extra power cable connected to your video card (seated well, fan running)? What power supply are you using. Please post the model of your memory. Any lit LEDs on the board? I assume it powers up (fans running, etc). Does it appear to boot and POST?

In addition to the questions in the post above: Any chance you have a POST beep speaker connected to the board? Is the four/eight pin CPU power cable connected to the board? Memory is in the A2 and B2 slots? The full model number of your memory might be helpful. FYI, for full support of a Ryzen 5 processor, you will need at least UEFI version P2.00 installed in your board. Your board will start with any UEFI version, as stated in the CPU support list: http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350M%20Pro4/index.asp#CPU" rel="nofollow - http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/AB350M%20Pro4/index.asp#CPU ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

This is seemingly #1 or #2 here for a "everything lights and fans spins but no video" cause/issue we see here. |

Yes got a post beep speaker conntected to the board. Getting no beeps at all. Yes I have got the memory in A2/B2 slots Yes got the 4 pin plug connected to the board.
My model of card does not need extra power cable connected. There is no where to plug in any cable to it. looked at an installation guide on youtube and they confirmed there is no extra power needed. It all powers up, all fans running but it is not booting or posting. I have found a sticker on a chip placed just above the PCIE1 socket, it says p2.40. is that the bios that the board is running. I have updated the OP at top with more specs of parts. Thanks to all that have replied, I really appreciate your time in helping me.

" rel="nofollow - Unless the PSU or RX550 took a dive, you really need to get that BIOS updated. Note: I'd really like to see a PSU with an -8-pin CPU plug. Is there a shop nearby that will test the PSU and put some diff mem in it so you/they can update the BIOS to 3.00? |

Sorry, DanCR4, but I agree with wardog. I suspect you need a more modern power supply. 500 W is probably not enough and a four pin CPU connector is not going to cut it. I hope your supplier will let you exchange yours for about a 650 W or so PSU with the 8-pin CPU connector. Your memory does not say what the SPD frequency is but I suspect it is 2400 MHz which should work fine. BIOS should work fine but should be updated when things settle down using Instant Flash in the BIOS. I would suggest you open the BIOS, push F9 (Load UEFI defaults), Save and Exit, open BIOS, Update BIOS, open BIOS, hit F9 then Save and Exit. Enjoy, John. ------------- Fat1 X399 Pro Gaming, TR 1950X, RAID0 3xSamsung SSD 960 EVO, G.SKILL FlareX F4-3200C14Q-32GFX, Win 10 x64 Pro, Enermx Platimax 850, Enermx Liqtech TR4 CPU Cooler, Radeon RX580, BIOS 2.00, 2xHDDs WD |

I had to reset the CMOS to get video out, seems like a common problem. If that works, then update the BIOS ASAP before proceeding. I did my BIOS update over internet and it worked fine, I believe I was running v2.30 before I made it to v3.0. |

DanCR4, I checked Newegg and they offer 4-to-8 pin CPU power adapters. Perhaps this would work. Enjoy, John.

thanks everyone for your help. I went out bought a new psu (EVGA 650 GQ Gold Hybrid Modular ATX PSU - 650W). I have updated the first post, with full specs of new power supply. At first the system was still not booting, then after pulling all memory, and cards, also took out cmos battery and done cmos reset, reseated all cards and wires, turned on the pc and boom the system booted into the bios, first thing i did was update the bios to 3.00 and now have installed windows 10. all running fine so far, so a big hand to everyone who helped in getting my system booting.   I guess I really need to learn that if you buy cheap you buy twice, I decided to go cheap on a power supply and it caused me no end of worry. so happy i got it sorted, did cost me another £80 (GB Pounds) but at least i got a working pc and not not an expensive bookend. again thanks to everyone who took the time to respond and help me out.

DanCR4, if you have not done a Clear CMOS as smrtech suggested, please do and let us know if that helps.

I got it sorted now, bought a new PSU, at first it would still not boot, so had another go at clearing the cmos and reseating all cards etc and i got it to work. |

Great!!! PSU is probably the only component that you can't go cheap. I learnt the hard way also many years ago. After all, alongside your case, it's the only component which lasts you the most if bought good at first, so I prefer to invest more on a good PSU and go one tier down on CPU, MB or GPU if budget is a problem for a new build. Cheers.
