So i recently upgraded my pc from intel i3 to a ryzen 5 3600 with a gigabyte aorus b450 elite and 16 gigs of ddr4 ram (2x8). Was working fine for 2 days and today i installed the ryzen mater sorfware and i think i messed with the memory clock. Now it wont boot and has the DRAM led on ,tried removing and putting in ram again, checked if all fans are working

Try running it with one stick of ram in a different slot...


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...or if you have the courage but no brains to back it, rip one of the ram sticks out while pc is booting and hope that it forces you into the bios.

Try a different slot and clearing the CMOS (check the motherboard manual on how to do this)

It may be the case that mobo need bios upgrade before you can use that 3rd gen Ryzen
