[@laurosilvestrejr.106]

Your video is definitely a lifesaver. I am not an advanced tech savvy person. I went into my bios. Tried to change the graphics settings because it's the AMD Ryzen 5600G and not all of the ram is showing in my system and after I did that my monitor would not register any graphics and would shut off and I couldn't get my monitor to wake up turn the system off, turn the system back on still the same thing. But now that I know that MSI and any line of MSI motherboards, my motherboard is the MSI b450 tomahawk Max can be reset. It's a lifesaver. It restored everything on my system back to the way that it came. I nearly bought a new motherboard just because of this and I have since canceled that order cuz now I don't need to change it now. I've learned something new, but these types of videos are very important for people like me who only know the basics and are not knowledgeable about advanced technology.

[@mikesunboxing]

so glad it helped you

[@laurosilvestrejr.106]

As I was saying in my comment about not all the ram is registering in my system I had a 3400 g which also didn't show all of the ram was being used but now with my 5600 g it's still not showing all as used. Is it possible for you to make a video explaining and showing how to optimize the BIOS so that the computer system shows all the ram is being used. My system shows 24 GB installed but says 19.9 GB usable.

[@mikesunboxing]

@@laurosilvestrejr.106 you probably have 4GB assigned to the APU so that is likely where the missing RAM is

Recently built a new PC and it would not boot at all. Made sure all connections were correct and tight....still no boot. Removed CMOS battery and waited two minutes, shorted the clear CMOS pins, reinserted CMOS battery and it booted! So even if your installed a brand new motherboard, first thing you should do is follow the procedure to reset the BIOS by clearing CMOS. (And if it still won't boot, replace the CMOS battery with a new one)

For the boys with ASUS TUF GAMING motherboards, you don't need to open your PC to reset your BIOS. Just use their Flashback feature and read manual online for super easy BIOS reset with USB and BIOS button in the back. Maybe other manufacturers have the same useful feature, so you don't need to disassembly your whole PC to reset your BIOS and it's settings.

[@mikesunboxing]

there are a lot of tuf boards that don't have bios flashback btw

Mike, if you have already upgraded the BIOS, won't you have to go back and do that again since the motherboard presumably returns to what it was like coming out of the factory or is it only the custom settings you've made to the BIOS which are returned to factory defaults?

So I did a thermal paste replacement on my Dell Optiplex 3020 MT. Only things I changed was cmos battery. Motherboard shoes red light doesn’t blink and power supply shoes yellow on the back but doesn’t blink. Everything works fine before I took it apart. I made sure everything is correctly connected to the motherboard tightly and it is but it still won’t boot up. The power button won’t turn white but when I plug in the psu cord the cpu fan turns on and spins. I did the jumper and cleared cmos multiple times. I am having a headache atm..

My dc 7800 CMT automatically starts as soon as I turn on the power supply, despite not pressing the power button. Also the CMOS data gets lost/corrupted every time the PSU is switched off/on (looks like the CR 2032 batt no longer sustains CMOS, even it's brand new giving full 3V). At start it displays "CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR". Moreover, when I put it into sleep mode from the OS and later try to wake it up it won't and the CPU fan starts spinning with full speed. What could be causing all this?

short circuit somewhere, maybe a motherboard mounting pillar

Note that the information in this video is slightly outdated. On a modern system with UEFI, the BIOS settings are actually stored in true nonvolatile memory (most often SPI NOR flash). The battery is only for keeping the motherboard's clock running while the system is unpowered. Clearing the NVRAM is something the BIOS has to do actively - because this advice is still so prevalent, many motherboard makers emulate "CMOS clear" behavior when an invalid RTC date is detected, but this shouldn't be relied upon - instead, use the dedicated NVRAM reset jumper or button on the board, as described in the board's documentation (some systems may also require powering on the system with the jumper in place before the NVRAM will clear - again, see your board's manual to see if this is necessary). Pulling the battery may fail to reset settings even if you're careful to drain residual electricity, because the NVRAM itself isn't battery-backed.

[@yourhandlehere1]

G'morning Mike. I would need to reset before trying this...if I try this. (dadgum curiosity) So I have 32g 2666 (19-19-19-43) 2x16 (GSkill Aegis) laying around from a previous system. Also have 32g 3600 (16-18-18-38) 4x8 (Corsair Ballistix) in my current system. If I could get them to play together nice,...I have 4 slots...would 48g at slower speed be better than 32g at faster speeds? CPUZ shows a timing table for the 3600 to match the 2666 (19-19-19-43) Reset and just plug them in, let the board sort it out or will I need to fiddle with stuff in the bios?

[@mikesunboxing]

i would set the BIOS to ddr4 2666 cl 19 they should if theory work together at that speed - fingers crossed

[@yourhandlehere1]

ASRock B550M/ac...XMP set to auto. (Most things set to auto) I thought it would use the cl19 of the Gskill. As far as "better" than 32g at 3600 I don't know yet. Right now I have my browser open, Photoshop with a 4K image, Daz Studio, processing a 4K 3D image, and HWinfo running...says I have 38G free. Edit, I gained 452 points in CinebenchR23.

"CMOS" isn't actually a thing on modern motherboards (UEFI instead stores settings in flash storage, next to the UEFI code itself), and it's up to motherboard vendors to emulate a CMOS reset when a battery removal is detected - not all boards do this. Look for an "NVRAM clear" or "BIOS reset" jumper or button on the board instead, which is actually meant to actively reset your BIOS settings.

Curious if you comment... I recently had a power issue, no spark, power supply tested fine, battery was recently replaced... fine. I decided to change the CMOS and bingo it popped on. BUT.... when I turn it off, it once again goes into a coma... only way to get back on is take dang thing apart again and popped out the CMOS and put it back in. Do you think it could be the power button control card?

[@mikesunboxing]

yes fault with the power ore reset button maybe?

Mike if i want to upgrade a cpu say from 5600x to 5950x do i need to do this first before inserting the 5950x? thanks

[@mikesunboxing]

no that should not be necessary

[@DezignPoint]

I upgraded from 5600 to 5900x and now the VGA light stays on? Should this resolve the issue?

Hi Mike, New to your channel. My Win 10 took ages to restart, so I powered it down using the power button (pressed for 5 secs). Now my computer gets stuck on boot up Windows logo and the spinning circle. First PC repair guy I had visit, claims it's a bios issue. Do you have any thoughts? Scared of messing up my machine. Many thanks for your time.

[@mikesunboxing]

sounds like either a bad boot sector on the drive or the drive is failing maybe. could be the motherboard but the really slow shutdown normally means windows can't right the shutdown data to the drive. so probably a dead or dying disk drive i would say

[@arthurolmedo4566]

That’s what it’s for. Bios battery sounds funny, but now I know man 👍

[@mikesunboxing]

I just want to install Linux and BIOS won't let me enter the boot menu Hope this will fix it ??

[@ThisSteven]

Hey I did this for my Asrock ab 350 pro 4 motherboard. But the BIOS version is still showing up as the latest version what am I doing wrong?

[@mikesunboxing]

resetting the CMOS doesn't change the BIOS version, just resets to the default configuration settings of that bios version
