B650 endless problems

Hey everyone, 
I'm really desperate for help.
For months I'm trying to update my BIOS on my Aorus B650 Pro AX, to see if post timings will improve.
My BIOS is from 2022....
Tonight I made everything worse. I made bootable USB, went into BIOS Q-FLASH end started the process. After reset, it didn't do the job.
Now I'm stuck with endless loop of restarts, I can access BIOS with message "BIOS has been reset. Please re-config your BIOS setup items if needed" every time I access the BIOS no matter what I do. 

I attempted even a Q-Flash button in the back of the PC with USB stick but all it does it powers up for loke 2 seconds and then it shuts down....

I have no idea what to do at this point....
Any assistance would be much appreciated!

To use the flash bios button the board, the USB drive needs to be prepared very specifically and you cannot miss a step. Involves the correct file system, an empty drive but the bios file itself and most importantly, the file to be renamed correctly. Its a pretty simple process but most people screw up in the prep.

Thank you for such a swift replies I really appreciate it! 
Only one thing I haven't done and that is I haven't taken off CPU and GPU because I was reading that you don't need go....

To be honest I haven't. I didn't notice it, I followed YouTube tips and that is probably how I messed it up....

The above videos make all the steps in the PDF excruciatingly clear.

No problems. Which lights are they? They should have labels next to them. CPU, VGA, RAM and BOOT

 

what colour are the lights?

 

also is it fixed?

can you check your manual to see what lights those are? I'd say do a CPU and ram reseat. Also set the ram speed to it's highest speed automatically and check all the power connectors are put in correctly

CPU, RAM, BOOT and VGA all illuminate in the same sequence. One more thing, I just did one more Q-Flash just because on last one after blinking light went off, PC didn't turn off, so I run it again. And same thing, blinking light is off but PC is still running, its supposed to shut down on its own....

RMA your board.

 

I have it, and updating bios is simple and easy.  Anything making it otherwise is a defect.

 

 

I've updated it for each new iteration and it's stupid easy.
