Hi all,

My MOBO is cycling through Q-codes. 

Typically, I’m getting error codes 33-37, and sometimes 42-49, 50-58. And it just keeps cycling through these error codes non stop even after I'm in Windows 11. 

My computer feels fine though. Just in Windows and doing my own thing but seeing these codes on the MOBO cycling which isn't normal and I want to fix this. Usually when I'm in Windows, the code sits at 40 or AA.


My computer has been fine for a while and what I did yesterday was update my BIOS to the recent firmware version 0805 dated 2022/11/15. This was when these codes started cycling. I’m not doing any overclocking and BIOS is default settings. I tried reinstalling drivers and reset the CMOS.

Setup:
X670E Dark Hero
Ryzen 7900x
AMD DDR5 Dominator RAM

Windows 11

Thank you for the advice/help to resolve this!

Those codes are in Windows right? 

 

Most motherboards with POST codes nowadays display the CPU temp on the POST code once hardware control is passed over to the OS. My guess is if you run Cinebench or Prime95 the POST code will just up to 85-95, or you can confirm this by going into HWiNFO64, checking the motherboard CPU sensor and see if that lines up with the values displayed on the POST code. 

 

Usually you can disable it in the BIOS if you want to, but I'd just leave it on, since it's a quick way to get what your CPU temp is and it doesn't actually hurt anything.
