thanks! it was in fact the bios - just updated it and got it working

all the components are brand new, this was supposed to be the first boot

hi, I have an ASRock A320M HDV R4.0 motherboard with a Ryzen 3 3100 and an ASRock Challenger RX 5500 XT 8 GB. i've connected all the font cables correctly but the pc is not booting up (not even to the bios) and the speaker doesn't beep. even when I remove my two RAMs it does not do the usual 3-beep. i've tried booting with and without the front panel connectors as well to discard any possibility of connecting them wrong - even with just the atx cables, cpu fan and gpu connected, it does not post nor beeps. any hint of what may be happening? full specs: CPU: Ryzen 3 3100, 4/8 Zen 2 3.9GHz GPU: Asrock Challenger OC RX 5500 XT 8GB GDDR6 Mobo: Asrock A320M-HDV R4.0 mATX PSU: Redragon RGPS 500W SSD: Hikvision E100N 128GB M.2 2280 RAM: 2x XPG Gammix D30 8GB 3200MHz DDR4 CL16
