Here is my part list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hkBmQd I am trying to start up this PC and get into the BIOS, but the screen isn't showing anything. Here are things I've already tried and tested. Did it work with a different monitor? Tried a different HDMI cable. Used a DisplayPort cable instead. Double-checked that all cables and pins were connected right. Did everything look good on the back panel. Still getting the same problem. Any help would be amazing at this point!

You're saying that the BIOS update made this happen, right? The 600-series motherboard isn't ready for your new 9000-series processor unless you put in a patch or wait for newer chipsets.

I got the newest BIOS update from that link and ran a flashback feature to apply it.

It seems like trying just to guess if everything is working without testing parts separately makes for a really bad situation. You might be dealing with a faulty part from the very start. If I were flipping a coin, I'd bet right on the CPU being broken, and that's the only sign you have: your BIOS flash feature seemed okay at first glance. Do you know any other people who own an AMD Ryzen 7xxx machine? Or do you happen to live near a mom-and-pop shop where someone else could help check it out for you?

Did you fix the BIOS settings? Are all your fans still turning over?

It seems that posting some Ryzen 9000s might take fifteen to twenty minutes or longer. Please wait.

It only happens on the very first start unless you mess with memory settings or try overclocking then expect a long wait before things change. Once it's all stable, boot times are quick again. If you reset your CMOS like you would during a first boot, it will look exactly like that and take a long time to finish. To get into the BIOS just keep your system simple: remove the GPU, cut the power from the card, unplug the SSD from the motherboard, and make sure all your front panel plugs match what your manual says they should be for your build. Check that the big ATX power cable is in place and the CPU power plug is too. Plug in your monitor and HDMI lead into the socket on the back of the motherboard. If you don't have a GPU installed, the computer's built-in graphics will do the job instead. Connect a keyboard and mouse. Turn on the system using the switch and press the BIOS entry key (which might be Del or F2) to test if everything works and boots correctly. If it does work, rebuild one thing at a time and make sure you swap the monitor for your 4060.
