Im having an issue getting to post. I have an asrock z77 extreme 4 mobo with an i5 3450 cpu and some pny ddr3 1866 ram.

 

the motherboard has a post code readout on it and it cycles through a bunch and eventually gets stuck on code 4f which according to the manual is "DXE IPL is started"; I have no idea what this means. Ive replaced the CMOS battery and also tried clearing it using the jumpers. Any idea on what I can do?

I read here [ https://forums.tweaktown.com/asrock/56721-asrock-z77-extreme4-debug-code-4f.html ] that it could be a compatibility issue with your ram check the compatibility list for your motherboard.

it throws the same issue with old ram that I used on the rig for several years

If youre using the video out from your gpu try taking that out and using your onboard graphics. If you cant get a display out of that you may be able to use a usb drive to flash the new bios without a display, but im not 100% sure about that.

Ive taken out my gpu to eliminate possible issues. Researching flashing from usb now! Thank you!
