Using a USB flash drive with other system formats such as NTFS or exFAT will not allow you to update the BIOS, format it to fat32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 8 Author If that doesn't work what about re flashing the 13th gen processor thing as it is almost like it isn't registering my processor. Or is that just me? It unfortunately doesn't seem to have made a difference And the QF led did nothing again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 8 Author Ok I will try a do a vid of it 20 hours ago, jimbo18 said: Ok I will try a do a vid of it Nope was too big so will do a walk through in photos instead Selected the top 4 files and copied them to the already formatted usb. Changed the name. Although do I have to remove the processor as well? Right so score so far is I have had the QF light do a bunch of fast flashes then a solid light then tun off, so I am unsure if that means it is none or not. Unfortunately no luck so I'm not sure what to do now Does this mean my CPU is not supported by my board? My CPU is a i9 13900KF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 8 45 minutes ago, jimbo18 said: Does this mean my CPU is not supported by my board? What CPU do you have? There's a difference between 13900 (which you indicated above), 13900K, and 13900KF. The KF variant does not include a iGPU. ask me about my homelab on a personal quest convincing the general public to return to the glory that is 12" laptops. cheap and easy cable management is my fetish.

Posted February 9 Author Ah ok sorry for my mistake I assumed they were all the same. It is the i9-13900KF That would explain why it isn't working with integrated graphics I have someone that has offered to test my GPU today/this weekend so that might tell me if it is broke or not.

Posted February 9 Author I have just re tried the BIOS flash having reformatted the usb and redownload the update. This time the lights worked: Total time until fan on PSU stopped 4 mins 10 secs. Slow blink and PSU fan started at 40 secs. Light stopped at 3 mins but PSU fan boosted for a second or so. Is all of this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted February 9 6 minutes ago, jimbo18 said: Not other than the ram in the GPU I don't know why other people were trying to get you to try to update bios and try with and without the graphics card with no ram. BIOS incompatibility or not, there would still be no POST and no display out. The VRAM on the GPU isn't shared. You need ram for the CPU. Your CPU is supported by that motherboard. The picture you circled that says "none" is talking about integrated graphics. That's just Gigabyte telling you that you won't have graphics output without a dedicated graphics card. There's a lot of very weird choices with this build. I'm curious how you ended up at this parts list. I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

The PSU and GPU were offered by a friend who was upgrading and yeah so that's the reason behind those bits. As for the CPU that was the only bit I planned for really. And the motherboard was just kinda based on the fact that it was a known brand and seemed to go with the rest of it according to pcpartpicker.com Yeah basically just a Mish mash of random bits.

That's a board you'd expect to see with an i3 or i5... Ok, So just out of interest what would you recommend as a board for my current processor. And should I go with single/dual or quad channel RAM for my current board? And I would have thought that even without RAM I would still get a BIOS display or have I got a lot of wires crossed.
