Ryzen Installation files?

The_Real_Skeb · April 5, 2020

I just installed a Ryzen 5 3600X with a new mobo as well. I switched from a I7 7700K on a MSI H110M gaming mobo to a R5 3600X with a ROG STRIX B450-f gaming. booting takes a while and i see of the EZ debug LED that the cpu led turns red for 3 seconds and then turns of but showing a yellow light on Dram for 3 seconds. After a couple back and forth, the VGA LED light lights up green and then boots fine. Except all of my files have no preview on them and some apps on my dock have no logo ( theres an empty space i can click on to open an app but no logo). And i installed the ASUS grid but crashes when i try to install any of the apps that are showing on there. I also installed RYZEN master through google and it wont open.

Edit: I looked at my file explorer and one of my drives says NTFS and it says 0 bytes of 250gb free. And i can also open games that are on that drive that says NTFS.

I'm assuming you just transferred over your boot drive to the new motherboard and are running of that. Is that correct? Or did you do a clean OS install after the new CPU and motherboard?

Your existing boot drive SHOULD still work with the new setup, but with such a major hardware change you may need to do a clean install of the OS.

Ye no sorry, all I had to do was free some space up on my drive with the OS. Everything works fine now.

Well, everything works fine but is there a way I can reduce boot time? I get this EZ debug LED signs on my mobo but in the end it boots fine. First the CPU led is red for 3 seconds, then turns off while the Dram LED turns on in yellow. Then turns back off and CPU LED turns red again. After that the VGA LED turns white for a few seconds then switches to the boot LED which is on green. I don’t know what this means or if there’s a problem.
