Gigabyte Mobo VGA LED in red with built-in GPU performance
Hey everyone, I just changed my Gigabyte BIOS which wiped out all my settings and locked the power off. Now the VGA LED is flashing red even though I'm running Windows. It's a headless server, and it's taking a while to start up. When I press the power button, it clicks a few times (probably guessing the PSU) before launching. Idle power use has jumped significantly—about 67 watts. I turned on all BIOS power-saving options, but Windows uses the balanced plan with minimal CPU usage. Core clocks are at 800MHz, and aside from Emby and Parsec, nothing else is installed. Anyone have any thoughts? My machine is an i5 10400 (Boxed cooler) with a Gigabyte B560M Aorus Pro 2x WD Red Plus, 4TB WD40EFZX, plus two WD Purple drives, Corsair Vengeance LPX CMK16GX4M2E3200C16, and a base 601 Corsair RM550x 2018 with a 256GB SSD running Windows 11 Pro.
What BIOS release did you install? Upgrading to BETA BIOS might cause unusual issues.
