Certain boards lack sufficient memory to run all AM4 chips simultaneously. Updating the BIOS to the latest release often causes it to ignore older processors. You might need an older BIOS version to properly handle Ryzen 3 1200 or Ryzen 5 1400. Alternatively, consider purchasing a budget-friendly new chip such as the Ryzen 5 5500. It offers significantly better performance while being very affordable right now.
No success yet. It seems the LED on the motherboard works with the Ryzen 5 1400 but flashes when using the Ryzen 3 1200.
Confirming your setup: is the motherboard ASUS Prime B450PLUS? It has several LEDs, so let me know which one is active or blinking.
