cant update bios

looked on youtube a bunch of times cant find a fix.

i have b650m ds3h

rtx 3070 ti

ryzen 5 7600x 6 core

im pretty sure i got the right update but and set up the usb properly but when i go to q-flash nothing shows up on the right to select a file but it does recognize the usb is there its just on the left side

also the main reason i was trying to update bios is because my display is really grainy even though im on the proper settings for the monitor and pc if anyone can share some insight or advice it would be greatly appreciated (im not a computer guy so please talk to me like a grandpa or link a youtube video)

AMD Expo not working - tech support suggests my cpu could be stopping it.

Currently using the motherboard Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX (Rev 1.0/1.1) coupled with 2x32GB F5-5600J3636D32GX2-FX5 DDR5 5600. For nearly a year i was able to run EXPO on this motherboard. Then one day it just stopped booting with expo enabled. This was when the bios was at F8, now they are at F24c. I had updated to f20,f21,f23 then f24c with no success. I even went back to f8 thinking maybe that might help. No dice. To confirm, im using A2/B2 slots.

I can boot into windows at Jdecc Speeds(4800Mhz)

I tried manually setting it 5600Mhz with the timing specific to the RAM, still not booting, tried the same with 5200Mhz, same with 5000Mhz. Nothing

I purchased 2 spare kits to test this with. 1 being the exact same brand/model of ram I started with.

1 stick did not boot at all, the ram thats the same model booted into windows at Jdecc speeds.

Followed same processes as before and was not able to boot up.

Technical Supports suggests that it could be my CPU stopping me from using Expo. This is my first go round with Expo so i am lacking the information to suggest that info is wrong/right. RMA'ing the process would be rather easy, but a pain as i would be without the machine for sometime. From what ive seen/read, im losing a fair bit of performance using 4800vs5600.

AMD Warranty information suggests that its more than likely the motherboard. How does on navigate this? Two companies suggesting someone elses products could be causing this? Is it even possible to test out a a faulty cpu memory controller?

Luckily, amazon has a rather generous return policy. But i cant buy a spare motherboard, cpu just to test it out.
Any suggestions?

Tried everything possible

Hi all, I have a z590 Aorus Xtream MB , freshly installed Win 11 , there’s no WiFi icons or setting , there’s no adapter I’ve shown all hidden adapters still nothing , I’ve download and installed drivers and still nothing , I’ve watch few different YT vids googled , so my last option is to reach out to the community hoping someone might no the fix , I’m not even sure where the assuming the M.2 WiFi card is even position to check if there’s a lose wire or something, it feels as there isn’t one in there from all the trouble shooting I’ve been trying 🤷🏻‍♂️

5th time motherboard stopped working

Bought this motherboard in 2021 gigabyte aorus elite b450. Started having issue after 1 year. Went to service center they repaired it. Again issue again service center again repaired same again 3rd time. 4th time i went to the guy from whom I bought it. He called whatever executive and asked him to change the motherboard. As claimed by the store guy he replaced it. 4th is of 2023. And now again it doesn't work. How many times am I supposed to get it fixed? Service center isn't on the corner of my house. Absolutely waste product

GPU not detected after F21 bios update on Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX

Specs:

MOBO: Gigabyte B650 Gaming X AX (rev 1.4)

CPU: Ryzen 7 7700 (PBO ENABLED: Thermal Limit 80C, Curve Optimizer: -20)

RAM: ADATA XPG Lancer RGB DDR5 16GB * 1 at 6000 MT/s (EXPO ENABLED)

GPU: Gigabyte Eagle OC 4060

PSU: Corsair CV650

STORAGE: Crucial P5 Plus 512GB, Samsung 980 1TB

This is a fresh build, the motherboard came with bios version: F1. Gigabyte Control Center showed a bios update, as you can see from the picture the bios got updated from version F1 to F21 after the completion of update the whenever the pc is cold booted the display wouldn't turn on, the pc has to be restarted to get a display signal from the GPU. Also GeForce Experience crashes every time.

Aorus Waterforce X 360 Standoffs

Hello all, I bought a Waterforce X 360 off of someone and I am missing the LGA 1700 standoffs and thumbscrews (I have the brackets). Does anyone know where I can find a kit or the standoffs online? I tried contacting Gigabyte directly but I've had no luck. I searched everywhere I can think of but I can't seem to find any that are the same length.

B450 AORUS ELITE- No POST

Hello , hope someone will be able to help me .

I was underclocking(used AMD software not from bios) my ryzen 7 5700g to 3,500 mhz and 1.125v then it got a black screen during the apply and test.

Tried the following :

I have tried to reset CMOS etc.

I have tried to put my spare ryzen 3 cpu and same issue does not switch on.

What i have notice

When I connect the power cable to my PSU and click on the button to turn on the PC , the CPU led blink and nothing

When I remove the CPU power cable from the MOBO , everything else turn on so I think the PSU might still be ok - my gpu get blue light which seems to say that it is getting enough power.

I want to know if I need to replaced my motherboard? Would the computer still go to POST if both CPU was no good?

Thank.

Gigabyte A520M S2H + RX-550 Problem

Hi, I've had this PC for about 4 years, and now I think the motherboard or graphics are giving me problems. A week ago the monitor turned off, but the PC worked normally (I was on a call and the other person could hear me), I restarted and it booted normally. Then when it happened again, when I restarted it the Motherboard was not recognizing the graphics because it sounded one long beep and two short ones, but it received power because the fan turned on.

Recently, sometimes it detects it and other times it doesn't, when it does it starts and a few seconds later the screen says it has no signal and turns off again.

All components are: Ryzen 3600 Radeon RX-550 4GB 2x G.skill tridentZ 8GB DDR4 Corsair CV550 80 plus Bronze Samsung SSD 980 NVMe

B650 Eagle AX - Bluetooth issue?

Every thing worked fine, even the WiFi, but I think the BT has an issue.

First, I connected the keeb K380, when i started typing, the characters or letters are doubled like "keeeeeeeyboaaarrddddd", I thought it's just the battery so I replaced it with a new one, but the issue is still there.

Then, I connected a wireless headphone, it has the sound in it BUT the audio were choppy.

We tried both devices on laptops and phones and BOTH WORK PERFECTLY FINE.

What I already did:

Installed BT Driver, WiFi Driver, and Audio Driver

Z790 UD AC Rev 1.1 - Where is the BIOS for this?

Hello. Im working on a build that has a Gigabyte Z790 UD AC Rev 1.1 board. I got the latest BIOS from the gigabyte support page but noticed its only for Revision 1.0.

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/Z790-UD-AC-rev-10#kf

Trying to flash this BIOS onto the Rev 1.1 board does not work, but there is no page for the Rev 1.1 board. I see Rev 1.0 has recent BIOS updates so just want to get the new 1.1 board up to date. Where can I find the BIOS files for this board? Thanks

Waterforce 280 temperature problems

Hello

After I did an update on Aorus Engine 2.2.6 the it seems that the Aorus Engine don't read the CPU temperature. The Pump-LED is blue that means about 30deg it should be green (40deg) in idle, even if I play a game the fans do not increase the speed. I can read the temp with other programs.

The Fans are stuck to the 0deg speed no matter if I change to silent or defalaut.

I tried to make a roll back on an older version but sit won't help.

Just upgraded to a Auros FO27Q3 from a Samsung odyssey g5

If your on the fence about getting one of the new qdoled monitors just get one. They look insanely good, I don't see myself ever upgrading my monitor ever now.

GIGABYTE X670E AORUS PRO X AM5, RGB Fusion 2.0 not in sync

Specs:

NZXT H Series H5 (2023) Flow RGB Edition (F140 RGB Core fans)

Mobo PCB rev. 1.0, GIGABYTE X670E AORUS PRO X AM5 (ARGB on CPU VRM heatspreader)

Windows 11 Pro

AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

DeepCool AK500S WH DIGITAL Air Cooler (ARGB)

16GBx2 G.SKILL Trident Z5 Neo F5-6000J3036F16GX2-TZ5NRW (ARGB)

RAM set to EXPO 1 in BIOS to reach DDR5 6000

SK hynix Platinum P41 2TB

Seasonic FOCUS GX-750, 750W 80+ Gold

Updated BIOS to F24c

Clean install of Win11 Pro, used local account with shift + F10 and OOBE\BYPASSNRO

Downloaded and installed all drivers from Gigabyte's website except chipset and APU drivers which was downloaded directly from AMD's site.

I did not connect to the internet until all drivers are installed.

Installed Gigabyte's RGB Fusion 2.0, all light modes and colors are working as desired. Put the system to sleep, woke up with all ARGB in sync.

Restart, all ARGB in sync

Shuts down fine, however when I try to boot it back up, no POST, all RGB (CPU cooler, RAM, two intake fans) with the exception of the mainboard RGB is in rainbow mode, mainboard is in some color cycling mode. Holding down the power button for 5-7 seconds does not work. I have to manually shutdown the computer using the main PSU switch.

Every time I use manual shutdown on the PSU, the board boots up fine, I just can't shutdown the machine or else it won't POST, unless I perform the PSU shutdown again.

Switched to SignalRGB, all RGB in sync except for the RGB on the mobo.

I don't get it, this is a new build. Nothing has been installed except for mobo drivers and RGB Fusion 2.0. Any ideas?

No FreeSync Premium Pro on AORUS FO32U2P

Hi,
I purchased an AORUS FO32U2P recently and I can't seem to be able to enable FreeSync Premium Pro on my monitor! It works perfectly on my Laptop but it won't even show up in the AMD Software !

I can enable the VRR option but not FreeSync Premium Pro nor the Premium Pro option! Even when I have HDR On the FreeSync Premium Pro is greyed out in Games!

I am using a Lenovo Legion 7 16ARHA7 - Type 82U Laptop with an RX 6850M XT via HDMI (there is no DP port so I can't try DP)

PS: VRR works, I have a Desktop with an RTX 4090 and G-SYNC works perfectly but AMD seems to be having issues with the Premium Pro (HDR) option...

Beta firmware for 14th Gen Intel i9 CPUs

Hi All,

Does anyone know where I can get the beta firmware that sets all the various power settings for the 14th Gen Core i9 to the Intel recommended defaults? I have an Aorus Z790 Elite AX Rev 1.x mobo but the latest firmware on their site is from December last year. Is my mobo already EOL?

Additional NVMe SSD in Gigabye G5 MD not working

I wanted to add this SSD to my G5 MD: https://www.amazon.co.uk/fanxiang-S880-Internal-Solid-State/dp/B0C36YQCX8

The laptop works fine with just the original SSD in, it also works fine with just the new SSD in with a fresh windows install. As soon as I have both SSDs in, no matter which slot they are in, the laptop won't boot anymore. It gets stuck on the initial loading spinner, it spins for a second and then freezes.

I've looked through the BIOS but couldn't find anything that helps, boot order didn't do anything, neither did disabling Secure Boot. The Gigabyte support just refers me to the list of supported SSDs which mine isn't on, however I know it's not faulty and it works in the laptop because it's fine if just that one is in.

Anyone has any more ideas?

I just bought an x670 Aorus Elite Ax Motherboard

I heard that x670 boards have fried multiple 7800x3D CPUs but was later fixed with BIOS update. Do I need BIOS update for my motherboard before installing the CPU? or do the new ones come with already updated BIOS?

Possible bug with AGESA 1.1.7.0 Patch A BIOS and 7800x3D CPU

Just wanted to share...

Gaming X AX v1.5 - installed the latest BIOS (24c - with the 1.1.7.0 A AGESA) and had no issues with my 7700X CPU - until I just upgraded to a 7800X3D. When I did that - the iGPU appeared in Device Manager.

Went through resetting to defaults - reflashing the BIOS - still showed up.... Until I downgraded to v23 (AGESA 1.1.0.2 b).

Now it's definitely not showing up in Windows (but did have to address the new unknown PCI Device (PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_14DE&SUBSYS_D0001458&REV_CB) by installing a chipset driver for it.
