#Msi tomahawk stuck on cpu led how to#

It appears that cheap mystery drives may be problematic. I only use USB 3.0 drives of a known brand not mystery drives. I also had problems with the first usb stick i used, i read somewhere that not every stick will work even it was formatted in Fat32.Ĭlick to expand.You need the CPU, RAM and GPU to get to post sounds like the bios flashed OK from your post just need to build the PC

Man, i really thought i bricked my mainboard, but i was really relived then i could go into the bios and setup the boot drive.īut still you should read the instruction in the manual how to do the bios flash. At the end, i needed to turn off the pc with the power switch of the psu.Īfter that it still didn't boot and i researched a bit and found out that you need to install the newer bios ( 7C84v14) which is a patch to make it all work. Then i caught on the failure and installed the right bios ( 7C84v13 ) the led on the back was blinking and the pc had a couple of fans spinning and turning off and on again. I thought the bios was installed correctly and i completed the build, but it didn't even boot into the bios.

I first used the newer bios ( 7C84v14) on the msi website you can do this without cpu, ram and gpu. I want to give you one tip, because somehow i thought i messed up the bios flash from the usb port on the backside. I'm pretty happy with the performance boost i still have an old Asus Strix 1060 oc gpu but i will upgrade if i can get any 3070 or 3080. I just finished my build with the x570 Tomahawk and 5600x.
