Looking a little bit... if you haven't given this a go try this;

1: Shutdown PC
2: Place memory in A1 + B1 slots (gray slots, most likely)
3: Power on PC
4: Boot into BIOS
5: Enable D.O.C.P. ( This is an overclocking profile setup for AMD MOBO's )
6: Try to post to windows

** Edit: Leave all the D.O.C.P. settings as default for now, we can dig in further if need be

it was the grey slots

i believe its because my bios is maybe outdated

Hmm for shits and giggles try both sticks in the A2/B2 slots (not grey)

** Edit I realize you have 4 sticks, trying to eliminate some issues it seems your board has with A1/B1

A user on a forum seemed to have the same issue, for now lets throw two sticks in the two pink slots and leave the green ones empty



And see if you can post to windows.

i dl'd the bios i need

i put on flashdrive - > open bios -> try to update via fd

“Selected file is not a proper bios”

what am i doing wrong?

doing this bc my new ram ( 4stick 16gb ddr4 3600mhz corsair vengeance ) isn't compatible rn somehow even tho multiple people use this ram with my mobo ( asus tuf x570 wifi ) and my cpu ( ryzen 9 3900x ) or worse

i think this is caused by bios not being up to date maybe someone can weigh in on this also?


e: think installing the same ram but 3200 mhz will just work? guess im gonna have to go return and get diff ram



i have moved this discussion also to general help with this new synopsis : https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=94475755&f=34&p=614627405#p614627405
