[@fizzmac966]

Hey Mac Coyzkie! Quick question! Still having trouble with my PC and I started to look around for information and stuff. I read that the Debug lights colors don’t matter when you boot up your pc. Supposedly it only matter when the Debug lights turn back on and stay on. Is that true? When my pc boots up the CPU led light is Red Then my Dram led light goes on Yellow Follow with GPU/vga led light White The boot led light sometimes doesn’t go off. My PC turns on btw The issue am having is that my PC starts running slow and then it turns off. I used to work around it by removing my ram stick and putting them back on and I would be able to game for hours. Then couple days ago my little trick stop working. Swapping the ram stick won’t work anymore. My Pc runs good for a solid 30 minutes and then it just lags and turns off. Also for the first time my pc got a warning screen that my CPU temperature was high So point of all this was if the debug light that turn on with a different color at the start are actually warning or that’s just how my Motherboard turns on because none of the light stay on afterwards. I thought those light indicated what issue my pc has but if that’s it natural start up then idk what my issues is. Anyways thanks in advance

[@MacCoyzkie]

in some cases the led colors matters depending on the motherboard manufacturer but mostly it doesn't matter. if you did received a warning about cpu temp then that might be a cpu cooler not working properly, this always happens to aio cooler pump not working, if you are using air cooler then it might not be touching the cpu so i suggest replace the thermal paste and use a better one. more info here kzbin.infoyWJehPzuVdw for now, if you are using windows 10 i suggest clear cmos, here's how to kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWrLqniGiauFZ5I so we could test things out in default settings

Hey Mac, great video, but I can’t seem to fix my PC problem. This is my first time building a PC, and I’m using a B450 Tomahawk Max motherboard (used), NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (used), AMD Ryzen 5 CPU (new), 1TB SSD (new), and a Thermaltake 650W power supply (new). When I turned my PC on for the first time, there was no display, but the fans and RGB lights worked fine. Also, the red CPU light on the motherboard is on. What can I do to fix the issue?

[@MacCoyzkie]

you need to update bios, perhaps the motherboard doesn't have the bios for ryzen 5 (new). visit msi's website look for your motherboard and check the bios download for the ryzen 5. Installing the bios have different ways depending on the brand and model name so you need to check the motherboard manual for that. A bit of a warning though, do not interrupt the bios update process, more info here kzbin.infonfH5Do3Dq3o

So I have this similar mobo except b660 with these debug issues. The dram, VGA, and boot light up for a few seconds when I boot it up with the GPU plugged in. The GPU is the RTX 3060 ti. However, if I unplug the GPU and run the computer off the motherboard it boots up just fine. I did notice that it is not detecting wifi or my HDD (but it sees my SSD so windows downloaded on that anyway). I already did the steps except cleaning it (it is brand new out of the box and not being able to test it on another computer). Do you think this sounds like a faulty GPU if the computer can run off the motherboard still? Should I exchange it?

so im having a boot light problem what the only issue or weird thing to me is that even without any drives connected it stays green no signal to the monitor but the VGA (white light checks and turns off). I would think even if its not reading a storage device it would still boot to the bios page. I turn the PC on the fans and cooler AIO bot turn on GPU fans spins for a moment and then turns off. i have a B550-A ROG motherboard Ryzen 7 5800x 32gb ram vengeance 2 TB m.2 970 evo (new) 500 gb m.2 (windows installed) 4060 Asus GPU 750W BP EVGA PSU I've read somewhere were the monitor might be the issue and ive also read where it might be the Bios version not supporting the correct ram and Ryzen socket version. Any thought or ideas would be grateful. Thanks,

[@MacCoyzkie]

it is a bios version bro, i know b550 supports your 5800x but most motherboards nowadays are using old bios version specially if they have been stocked for a long time.

this has been an issue ever since this year 2024 enters. most motherboards are like this for some reason. if you look into the comments there are a lot of people who had the same issue. you can actually ignore it but if its bothering you so much the fix there is to update the bios firmware. make sure the firmware is compatible with your current cpu because if you made a mistake you'll lose monitor signal. check this video too for more info kzbin.infonfH5Do3Dq3o

replace the sata cables both power & data. if still does not work this is either a faulty drive or messed up windows os. To check try using a different drive, remove that ssd for a while and boot the system. if you see "reboot and select..." this means there is something wrong with your ssd

if this is a new pc build you might want to consider a bios update. usually you'll see "power saving mode" on your display if the mobo needed a new cmos battery, just clear cmos for 5 minutes for now. if still doesn't work then yes it is a dead motherboard

[@MacCoyzkie]

i hope you did not interrupt the bios update in any way because that will destroy the motherboard. Since you updated the motherboard bios for the new cpu then the old one will no longer work. the one you installed might not be compatible with the new one so you have to double check the bios update version specifically for your new cpu. most motherboards nowadays doesn't need monitor to update bios, usually there is a flash bios button on the motherboard's io. just place the usb with the bios update file in it and nothing else, place it at the specific motherboard's usb bios input then press the flash bios button. each motherboard has its lighting indicator to see if update is done or still in progress so check your motherboard manual for that

Last thing. How is one supposed to diagnose whether it's the motherboard, GPU , Monitor or Cable? By process of cancellation I have ruled out most.

@@Yahowah777 led light colors are just the motherboard's feature, some do have these stuff and some don't but the idea there is when it started lighting up it is checking the hardware if its correctly functioning, led will be steady meaning there is a problem but if it disappears it means it read the hardware and was functioning correctly. there are a lot of angles you need to check if you got no display and fix may depend on how the pc problem started so check these links out for more info kzbin.info/www/bejne/fF7HfXV_pNKanrs or this kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKTMp6qriNGDgpY to know which component is causing the no signal problem test your monitor first with a console or laptop if you have one, replace hdmi/dp because at times its just the cable, have a friend test your ram sticks and gpu and if one of those does not work as well then that is the culprit but if it does work normally then it might be your motherboard or psu to check psu you need something like this kzbin.infoYrC3PlflLq0 and if the psu works fine then the motherboard is the culprit. there is no way to test the board alone and you really need the local shop's help at this because at times you just need to update the bios but before you do that watch this for safety kzbin.infonfH5Do3Dq3o

no quite but more like update the bios to the latest, make sure it is compatible with the current cpu you have. if you plan on doing the update yourself check this first kzbin.infonfH5Do3Dq3o

My boot light is on but I’m getting no display and I’ve replaced all my ssds and hdd and still didn’t work

[@MacCoyzkie]

have you tried using just one drive atm, remove any storage drive and just try the ssd boot drive with windows in it
