Hi i have some problems with the PC I built. When I start it I first get the Ez Debug CPU light for a few seconds, then all lights turn off and then its the VGA light constantly. I don't get any image output on my monitor. I have the following parts: ZOTAC GAMING GeForce GTX 1660 Super Twin AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (8x 3,6 GHz) 36MB Sock MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus ATX Mainboard S 16GB (2x8GB) Corsair Vengeance LPX Black Samsung SSD 860 EVO Series 500GB 700W PSU (only not newly bought part, but worked fine before) I already verified that the GPU works by plugging it into another PC but when I have it in this PC I always get the VGA light. Power cables are plugged in for everything, except the additional 4 CPU pins (8 pin plugged in, +4 not) since my PSU only has the normal 8pin CPU power. No idea what the Bios version is since I don't have any video output. The monitor I'm using is pretty old and I'm using an HDMI to DVI cable, but it works fine with my laptop. I already tried a cmos bios reset too.

The system required a significant amount of time during its first startup. On Ryzen processors, the initial boot process can feel slow. I've assembled four machines using Ryzen CPUs, and each time something seems off it becomes apparent. Besides that, consider resetting the CMOS on your hardware to rule out that issue. The most common error is connecting the video cable to the graphics card instead of the motherboard—this won't function properly if the HDMI output is used, since your CPU lacks built-in graphics.

I spent some time during the initial startup and after resetting CMOS and updating the BIOS. While testing, I mostly waited for the VGA indicator to flash for a few seconds to a minute. Clearing CMOS gave the same outcome, and I also performed a BIOS flash to the latest version. With the updated BIOS (or due to my earlier mistakes), it now lights up the boot indicator, but there’s still no video display. I have both an SSD and a USB drive with Windows installed, so there should be bootable options available. The GPU is fine.

Hi, I see the issue with your PC. It functioned well for about six months until the video output disappeared. The GPU works properly on another machine. Have you already addressed this problem?
