Ryzen 7 1700 not posting

[ThatOneHellFox]

Hey guys,

In my foolish 6 a.m. delirium I decided to try and overclock my computer. In doing so I went into the BIOS change what I needed to and saved the settings and left. When I try to restart it, and the fans would turn on, debug lights would come on, but everything would shut off and it would repeat. In my Google searches I found that there was a problem with using A-XMP. Do I need to update my BIOS version to fix this?

 

Things I've tried:

- Resetting CMOS by jumping JBAT1 both with and without power.

- Removing CMOS battery both with and without power.

- Reseating processor.

 

Sys specs: 

AMD Ryzen 7 1700 Cpu 

MSI B350 tomahawk motherboard 

2x8GB T-force dark ram

Nvidia GTX 1060 3GB graphics card

 

This computers worked perfectly fine before. I just thought I'd try and overclock it, that didn't work out so well. I read the thread on computers not posting, and I have answered most of the questions myself based on the fact that the computer has worked before. The computer is only about 6 months old.

 

Thank you for your help

check to make sure you're using a RAM speed that's accepted by the Ryzen Memory controller.

If the computer has started before, the speed should be acceptable, correct?

unless you changed it by selecting a RAM overclock profile that Ryzen doesn't support...

I fixed it. 

 

I didn't get the memo that you had to take the CMOS battery out and THEN short the CMOS JBAT1.
