I'm having trouble with the EZ debug LED and no post appears. Only fans are spinning. Motherboard details: MSI MPG B550 carbon, Wi-Fi RAM, Corsair Vengeance LPX 3200MHz, CPU Ryzen 5 5600X, GPU MSI GTX 1060 3GB, PSU Corsair TX650M. I've tried updating BIOS via the flash button but it doesn't work. When I press power, the debug starts briefly on the CPU, then pauses for a second or two, flashes VGA for a few seconds, then the boot lights up but never stays on. I've done many things and still don't know what to do. Please help me!

Are you confident the GPU is functioning properly? Have you reinitialized the system by removing the CMOS battery and possibly testing with a single RAM stick? Also, verify that your CPU is properly installed.

I also used the GPU on another machine. I reset the CMOS by removing the battery and pressing the reset button on the motherboard. I only tried one DIMMA2 stick, switched to another in the same slot, and confirmed the CPU was properly seated.

When the BOOT LED appears, it means the system isn't recognizing a storage device with an operating system.

What storage device are you employing? 2.5" SSD, 3.5" HDD, NVMe SSD? If it's a standard drive, verify the SATA interface and power connections. It won't boot if any stage fails (CPU, RAM, VGA, boot). It assesses CPU, RAM, graphics card, and boot drive first, then halts.

500gb ssd for the operating system, but the screen won't turn on. I can't access BIOS or anything. Even without the drive connected, I should be able to enter BIOS, but no logo appears. Sorry for the poor English.

Is this a 2.5" SSD or an M.2 NVMe drive? When you activate the Flash BIOS option, you must connect via the specified USB port. Follow each instruction precisely. Ensure the computer is turned off first. Obtain a USB drive and format it as FAT32. Extract the BIOS file you receive, renaming it to MSI.ROM as instructed. When downloading the BIOS (such as I did), it appears as XXXX.A10. Rename the file extension to MSI.ROM. Transfer the updated MSI.ROM file onto the USB stick. Avoid copying the entire folder; only copy the MSI.ROM file. Attach the ATX 24-pin and CPU 8-pin power cables to the motherboard. Insert the USB drive into the designated slot for Flash BIOS. Press the Flash BIOS button.

I followed the manual closely and got some assistance from online resources. The only part I didn’t test was using HDMI instead of DisplayPort. Thanks!
