Disabled hyperthreading in bios, ran a graphics benchmark and system froze about 20 seconds into the benchmark.

So, that does not seem to have fixed the freezing.

Dear Malyguard,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.


To support 2950X CPU, the BIOS must be updated to P3.10 at least, otherwise, the system won't post.
https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/X399%20Taichi/index.asp#CPU

We provide the FAQ below for your reference; please follow the guide to update BIOS.

Q: I would like to use AMD Threadripper 2 CPU on ASRock X399 platform, what should I do: (2018/7/1)

Hi I just set up my TR4 system with 1950x paired with x399 Taichi with latest BIOS as of May 13 2019

Windows 10 is Win10_1809Oct_v2_English_x64.iso . bootable on USB stick.

I want to install windows 10 on just one nvme drive, not in RAID config, but the windows 10 installer can't recognized the nvme drive. The nvme drive doesn show up in the BIOS.

Only one NVME drive is connected to the m.2 slot. HP EX920 M.2 512GB

Bios:
Sata -> . AHCI mode
Nvme Raid - > Disabled
CSM enabled, Launch Storage OpROM policy -> UEFI only.


What do I need to do to install windows 10 on NVME drive without raid. I have tried to load the floppy driver during install (bottom device), but still windows installer compliant about no drive found.


Thank you!

My B450 Pro4 only boots properly after lots of restart times.
Before that, it does boot into my Ubuntu 18.04.
But when it does boot properly, it seems very stable.
So I do not know if my board problem or OS problem.
Thanks.

Dear Meiyou,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.


According to your question, we provide some suggestions for checking if system can always boot smoothly:

1. Please enter BIOS setup and load BIOS default setting via [F9] to verify.

2. Only install bare bone devices; CPU, one stick memory and system disk to check if system can post smoothly.

3. Remove system disk to check if system can always boot into BIOS smoothly.

As AMD official supports Win10 64-bit OS on AM4 platform, for system stable, we would suggest installing Windows 10 for system setup.


Thanks!

All the best,
ASRock TSD

Final Update:

So I wound up Spamming pretty much every option in every support region, no responses after a few days.

Then I spammed every mail address i could find, webmaster, sales etc.. for every region and re-spammed support .

Next day, I was contacted by John from ASRock Support. He gave me a BIOS that allowed me to revert to 5.20

The mail on how to do, seemed that it would be complicated and difficult and dangerous, it was not.

The reversion ran a bit from within windows, then the system rebooted and UFEI Bios did its thing and self flashed to 5.20

All good.

However since the raid was broken by 5.40 I had some issues there. The Bios said there is no raid array but the disks still had a signature on them that they were part of an array.

No big worry, I've been down this rabbit hole before. You just need to low-level the disk and all is good. Except the Hitachi tool though able to wipe the disk doesn't apparently touch the area of the disk where the bits are set that indicate the disk is part of an array.

The fix. I fired up Dban, and Wiped the disks, I did not let it run fully just long enough that I felt confident the areas in question got zero filled. I then set the disks back to AHCI and initialized them under windows as basic disks.

Reboot and reconfigure as RAID and bam I could now initalize the disks and make them part of a new array.

A quick boot then off my cloned disk (before all this brouhaha started.) and reclone back to to my Raid1 Array. 24 hours later... everything is back and working as normal.

Raid... Working.
USB attacked disk Dock (attached via ASRock usb 3.1 Gen2 card). Working

Made 2 more new clones of the boot drive (Just in case.) They'll eventually be rotating boot backups, but for now...

And Stability testing is underway.

So color this solved. 5.40 Bios is problematic, so I'll wait, until the Ryzen3's come out and then flash at that time with whatever bios is out then, and if it doesn't work I have a backout for the thing you apparently cannot backout.

John, Kudos to you.

AMD Motherboards : DeskMin A300 vs. Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac

I got my DeskMini A300 yesterday. I installed a Ryzen 5 2400G. The included cooler looks identical to the one that's supplied with the Athlon 200GE, which in turn looks rather like the coolers that used to ship with the lower powered Socket FM2 A-series APUs. I considered using the Wraith Stealth that came with the 2400G. It does just fit if you remove the decorative cowl with the AMD logo, but it's very tight. In the end I opted for the excellent and near silent Noctua NH L9x65 SE-AM4. It's only 37mm tall and it doesn't foul the RAM or any connector, and it's rated for a 95 watt TDP.

I removed the motherboard from its tray in order to fit the cooler, as the baseplate has to be swapped for the one provided and the four fixing screws go in from underneath. I found it easier to assemble the thing upside down: I stood the cooler on the table with the fan downwards and the plate on top. I applied the thermal paste to the plate rather than to the CPU's heat spreader and then lowered the inverted motherboard carefully onto the cooler, making sure the holes lined up. Then I fitted the baseplate and inserted the four screws. Before fixing the motherboard back on its tray I fitted an M.2 NVMe (note that SATA M.2 SSDs can't be used) into the socket on the underside, leaving the more readily accessible one on the top free for future expansion. When fitting the motherboard back onto its tray you have to be very careful that the grounding tabs sticking out at from the I/O shield don't enter the HDMI and DisplayPort connectors. They are meant to press against the shells of the connectors but the tend to want to go inside and if you don't spot this you'll have to remove the board from its tray again.

I fitted the wifi kit. The only fiddly part here is getting the tiny coaxial connectors on the ends of the antenna leads to plug into the equally tiny sockets on the Intel wireless card. The card itself fits into a socket on the upper side of the motherboard, with a space above it for another M.2 NVMe SSD. You need to tuck in the thin antenna wires so they don't get caught up and pinched when you slide the tray into the case later.

I fitted the dual USB 2.0 socket, which is quite fiddly. The wires that connect it to the motherboard are quite long and tend to get in the way when you side the tray into the case. Inside the case there's a flat ribbon cable than connects the front panel LEDs and power button to the motherboard and it's routed quite neatly and held in place with clips. I used the metal clip to anchor a cable tie, which I used to hold the USB leads out of the way of the front of the motherboard tray as there isn't a lot of space inside the case. Having struggled with two pairs of tweezers to fit the cable tie, it came as a relief when I was able to close the case without pinching anything.

I was expecting to have to update the BIOS but it came with the current version 3.40. I noticed that the ability to update the BIOS over the Internet (without having to use a USB flash device) seems to have been removed from that version. The downloadable user manual shows it being available in an earlier version of the BIOS (page 43).

I already have the Fatal1ty AB350 ITX with the same APU. It will be interesting to compare the two, though while I have Windows 10 installed on the ITX (see my sig.) I'm planning to install Linux on the DeskMini.

As said before - this is my ever first PC build - I have decided on the following configuration:

ASRock A300 barebone
AMD Ryzen 5 2400G
HyperX Impact DDR4 SO DIMM 2666Mhz CL15 - 8GBX2 - total 16GB
Samsung 970 EVO Plus M.2 NVMe 500GB SSD (main drive)
Samsung EVO 960 2.5 SATA SSD 500GB (secondary drive)
Noctua NH L9a cooler

Any comments to this?

I hope all will go well - first timer!

I should say that the biggest difference is that the ITX board has a x16 PCIe socket so you're not limited to using a Raven Ridge APU. You could use any Ryzen processor and a discrete GPU if you want. With the DeskMini you have to use either a Ryzen APU or an Athlon APU. The Vega 11/8/3 integrated GPUs are impressive.

The DeskMini uses the A300 chipset - which actually isn't a chipset at all!. All the I/O (SATA, USB, etc.) is provided by the Ryzen SoC and the four PCIe 3.0 lanes that would normally connect to the chipset are diverted to the second M.2 socket. The ability to have two NVMe x4 SSDs is exciting. Some of the remaining eight PCIe lanes from the Raven Ridge APU are used to connect to the Realtek Ethernet chip and the optional wifi card and the rest are unused.

I tried again with an old driver from early november 2018, still the same problem... It really piss me off.

During the installation of the driver, when my screen turn off, i ear windows still making sound sound, like if i connect an usb key. I guess windows isn't crash, so is it possible this is possible resolution problem ? The driver try to put higher resolution than the monitor can handle so it turn off and say no signal ?

I got the part number wrong for the Noctua cooler. The NH L9x65 SE-AM4 is too tall. The one I used was actually a NH-L9a-AM4.

You should be fine with the parts you've chosen but remember this is a very tiny board and case. As someone else has pointed out the case is about the same size as the power supply used in a regular PC. It isn't ideal for a first time build and neither is an ITX but if you're patient and careful you shouldn't have too much difficulty, though a standard ATX or micro ATX motherboard in a tower case would allow much more room to work in.

Your parts list is very similar to mine. Same processor, cooler, NVMe SSD. Same brand and quantity of RAM, except I chose the 2933 MHz parts. Strictly speaking, 2933 MHz is a slight overclock for the memory controller if two SODIMMs are used but in practice it isn't a problem.

Final - Final update.

The 5.20 Downgrade bios, is slightly different in a good way.

The Disk Access LED never worked right for me with Raid, is now working as expected. Before was on all the time, now it does the blinky-Blinky like I expect it should.

Also Boinc now flags the CPU at 100% steady, prior it was hitting 100% and then dropping to 98% and then bouncing back up again.

So there is something different in the Downgrade bios, and it seems by different I mean better.

I have ran 1.51 since it came out, it has ran the best on my system. It is no longer listed as an option on the download page, does this version have an issue I should be aware of?

I have attempted all other versions up to 2.0 and none of have ran better. But if there is a problem with 1.51 I will just deal with the problems that come with the others.

Thanks,
