X570 BIOS Update for 3400g

[Newbygeek]

Hello. I hope you’re all doing well. I have recently built a pc but after I switch it on, Fans start spinning, everything lights up but no post beep or display. Do I simply need a bios update or it’s a more complicated problem?

try always to update the bios and drivers, if it doesn't fix the issue, search other possible reasons.

it should have t he right bios for the 3400g. do you have ram in slots 2 and 4?

I don’t have access to other CPUs, my MOBO doesn’t have bios flashback

If a MOBO boots, it beeps. It doesn’t beep. I have also tested my display with my laptop. It works fine

Yes. I have tried removing the rams to see if it beeps and it does. But when installed, I simply have no signal

All the parts except the MOBO have Been working fine last week. The MOBO is new

Since X570 motherboards are the newest, the BIOS accepts every CPU (except first gen ryzen, which is not officially supported by X570.)

 

Something else would be the issue, such as incompatible memory.

My memory is compatible, it’s listed in the g.skill’s site qvl

It beeps if there is a speaker plugged in to the motherboard. A lot of motherboards don't come with a speaker these days. Does the X570P come with one?

In which case, potential DOA motherboard.

I have installed my own buzzer. It works when I completely remove the rams

Incorrect.

Back in the old days the speakers used to be built into the board, and sometimes they still are, but in most cases it's a little dongle you put on the motherboard, like the front panel connectors. Without that it won't make any beeps.

DOA = Dead On Arrival, sites like Amazon and Newegg have return policies that let you return and get a new one if it is DOA.

Did you turn on the power supply from the switch in the back? Are any leds lit up on the motherboard, are fans spinning when you push the on button on the case?

 

IT can take up to 1-2 minutes for the system to boot up the first time its installed.

If you turn it off too soon, it will keep doing that.

Leave it running for a few minutes and see what happens.

 

Try with only one memory stick installed, then try with the OTHER stick installed...

 

Take the motherboard out of the case, put it on the cardboard case or something that doesn't conduct electricity and install just the cpu and ram and connect your monitor to the integrated graphics output

Start the motherboard by shorting the power switch pins for a bit with a screwdriver.

 

Basically reduce the number of components to the minimum ... just in case the case causes issues you're taking mb out of the case.

In rare cases, the reset or power switch on the case were shorted (always pressed) and wouldn't let the motherboard start so by starting the mobo by shorting the pins you're avoiding possible case issues.

Maybe you also installed the front panel connector wrong, or forgot to plug that header and thats why it doesn't start ... again, shorting with screwdriver solves this.

Nothing works. Are you sure it’s not a bios problem??

But not when you do?  Smells of bad ram.
