Ryzen master has broke my pc

Hi so I can't use my bios for anything anymore because any time a try and change a setting even if it is a fan setting it will not boot back up again and I have to reset the cmos battery to get the pc working again. I used ryzen master for light ram overclocking until I wanted to change a setting in bios then this issue started happening and after getting rid of ryzen master and deleting everything belonging to it in the registry it still persists and I can't figure out why. If anyone can help I will be very great full.

Using the program to try and overclock, i went too far with the numbers and it just froze. When I restarted my pc, the ryzen master program opens up automatically and overclocks my cpu right after I login, freezing my system once again. In the bios, I tried to reset everything to default, but once I login back to windows, I am usually able to open task manager and see the the amd application is using a lot of resources. Then it just freezes, every time without fail :( please help, thank you

After using the curve optimizer, and setting the expo in ryzen master (it had already been set i bios ofr half a year) my pc blue screened and would not boot, saying my windows is corrupted. I disabled expo in bios and now it boots, obviously i want to run expo for higher ram speeds but whenever i do it says my windows is corrupted. Ive uninstalled ryzen master using revo uninstaller but i still cant get it to boot in expo. Anyone know what to do?

October 26, 2020 - RE: I SOLD MY MOTHERBOARD AND THE RAM I OVERCLOCKED AND NOW IM GETTING NEW PARTS< If i put a the old cpu that I used in the overclocked pc. If its dead will it harm my motherboard? Thanks ... use bios and xmp settings for future RAM oc. same with cpu. gpu is only piece of hardware id reccomend ocing via software. ... You shouldnt OC your ram past what its rated to run. The cpu can be used to test if it works ... Click to expand... LOL That's really so true...you make it your business when you think it a good idea to overclock. Hard to blame Ryzenmaster for that.

r/overclocking on Reddit: Ryzen Master messed up my computer
February 22, 2024 -

Doing this on mobile so excuse the formatting.

I’ve recently “nuked” my computer, after having issues for a while, and I figured starting completely fresh should help.

And it did! I had a wonderful time doing some easy overlocks/undervolts like turning on EXPO and such. The CPU ran faster and cooler, and off the RAM was doing good too (I think)

But then I downloaded AMD Ryzen Master, and ran the automatic curve optimizer. Now getting it too boot is a real struggle, taking multiple attempts, and usually at least one forceful shutdown… It runs hotter, and with no benefit/speed or increase as far as I can tell

What on earth has happened? I’ve tried resetting the BIOS settings, and that doesn’t seem to have done anything. How can I undo?

And does anyone have any tips for overlocking/undervolting/optimizing that does not bork the computer?

Quick specs: AMD Ryzen 7900X Asus B450 or something Asus 7900 XTX 2x 16GB DDR5 6400MHz Gskill something 1000W Platinum PS from Corsair will correct when I double check, but everything should be listed in a previous post on my profile

r/overclocking on Reddit: Bricked my PC with AMD Ryzen Master
November 20, 2021 -

Motherboard: MSI A-Pro X570 CPU: Ryzen 5 2600 GPU: GTX 1070 RAM: Crucial Ballistix 3200MhZ

I was getting low frames and stutters in Vanguard so followed a guide by fr33thy to try and help it. In the guide one of the tips that he gives is to see how many cores and threads you have in task manager. I saw that I had 6 threads, and I could have sworn that that number used to be 12. I did some digging and decided to mess around with AMD Ryzen Master. I enabled SMT (Simultaneous Multithreading), enabled all of the cores and - here's where i believe that i fucked up - set the ram frequency to 3000hz. AMD Ryzen Master shows the RAM Frequency as being half of what it actually is. When I tried to restart my PC, it turns on, fans and LEDs and everything, but nothing shows on screen.

I've done some looking and apparently resetting the CMOS battery is one solution, but I actually have no idea how to do that and can’t really find any info in detail.

Others have said to boot into BIOS, or Safe Mode, but my PC doesn’t display anything on screen at all, nothing loads up.

One thing that I'm hugely worried about is that, on the motherboard, the light that shows a CPU error is showing, so would a CMOS reset actually solve this if there are CPU errors?

Please help, if my PC is actually bricked completely then my life is so fucked :)))

Thanks

Clear CMOS: https://www.lifewire.com/how-to-clear-cmos-2624545 Clear CMOS by Reseating the CMOS Battery remove the CMOS battery for a few minutes and then put it back in. Close the case or battery panel and then plug in, or reattach the computer's main battery. By disconnecting and then reconnecting the CMOS battery, you remove the source of power that saves your computer's BIOS settings, resetting them to default. Make sure you unplug your PC from the outlet before pulling out the battery... Clear CMOS Using This Motherboard Jumper Yet another way to clear the CMOS is to short the CLEAR CMOS jumper on your motherboard, assuming your motherboard has one. Most desktop motherboards will have a jumper like this but most laptops and tablets will not. Make sure your computer is unplugged and then open it up. Look around your motherboard's surface for a jumper (as shown in the picture) with the CLEAR CMOS label, which will be located on the motherboard and near the jumper. These jumpers are often located near the BIOS chip itself or next to the CMOS battery. Some other names by which you might see this jumper labeled include CLRPWD, PASSWORD, or even just CLEAR. Move the little plastic jumper from the 2 pins it's on over to the other pins (in a 3-pin setup where the center pin is shared) or remove the jumper entirely if this is a 2-pin setup. Any confusion here can be cleared up by checking the CMOS clearing steps outlined in your computer or motherboard manual. Do not use Ryzen Master to set ram speed. Use BIOS XMP profiles. The advertised speed is XMP profile speed. DDR stands for double data rate. Data is transferred on the rise and fall of the clock signal, therefore doubling the throughput. DDR4-3000 actual speed is actually 1500MHz, while the "effective" speed is 3000MT/s due to double data rate. When programs reports something like 1500MHz for the RAM, they are reporting the actual speed.

You need to clear CMOS to reset your RAM settings. Manual for your mainboard: https://download.msi.com/archive/mnu_exe/mb/E7C37v3.1.pdf Page 37 says: JBAT1: Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS) Jumper There is CMOS memory onboard that is external powered from a battery located on the motherboard to save system configuration data. If you want to clear the system configuration, set the jumper to clear the CMOS memory. Resetting BIOS to default values Power off the computer and unplug the power cord Use a jumper cap to short JBAT1 for about 5-10 seconds. Remove the jumper cap from JBAT1. Plug the power cord and power on the computer There's a picture showing where the jumper is. It's labeled JBAT1 use a conductive tool like a knife or screw driver to short the two pins as described above. Another option I have used with MSI boards is using the "Memory change" detection they have. If it detects a memory change it will reset CMOS. So if you're having trouble clearing CMOS you could remove memory sticks, put one in a different slot and the PC should POST. Don't forget to put the sticks back in the original slots. :)

January 4, 2020 - RM has decided to break, and now I have to restart my computer and then uninstall and reinstall the software using different versions each time to get it to launch. I'm using a Ryzen 7 2700. On Cinebench R20, before using RM to OC, I got a score of 3280-3300.

I got sudden restart issues happening while gaming just like the one in the video and im trying to find the problem so i just need to know if this is normal or not while applying curve optimizer. Note that curve optimizer is not applied after this restart and kernel event 41 and whea 18 processor core erros shows in event viewer, which also exist when it suddenly crashes during gaming or any cpu intensive task. Also this is the only way for the reboot to happen on purpose as i can play for days or even a week without a single crash. This is a newly build pc and the problems started right away. Tried updating bios and chipset and already replaced Psu and mobo

Ryzen Master Issue | Overclock.net
December 12, 2024 - And...just like that Ryzen Master stops working again. It reminds me of the GPU driver issue from a year (or so) ago when AMD either didn't understand or refused to follow the MS rules, so MS broke their install by slipping the Windows drivers in place during the momentary absence.

I recently did a complete reinstall of windows 11 and was about to do an undervolt using Ryzen Master. I selected the basic Per-Core optimization, clicked apply or whatever and boom - instant black screen. The CPU led on the MB lit up. Tried to restart but no luck, it does not boot.

What I've tried:

Power off, removed power cable, held down power button to drain, pressed CMOS-button. (I've done this a bunch of times by now) Removed RAM-sticks. Tried the same procedure with one stick in A2, then swapped for the other in A2, then the same thing in B2. Every time I try to boot the DRAM led lights up. After a while it switches to the CPU led (turning the DRAM led off).

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900X
RAM: Corsair 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000MHz CL30 Vengeance RGB AMD EXPO/Intel XMP 3.0

What the hell do I do now?

I have a Ryzen 7 5800x and a Aorus Gigabyte B450m pro wifi motherboard, Windows 11. I recently upgraded to the new CPU and have been using it for a couple weeks. I decided to use Ryzen Master to use to auto optimize for the CPU. It took about an hour and I think it blue screened at one point. But when it was complete I hit apply and it went to rest the PC. When it did, the Aorus screen comes up like it it's booting and the blue screens and says it has to restart. When it restarts, it says its going to repair but then crashes again. It just starts doing this over and over. I tried putting the bios into safe mode but that didn't do anything. Please someone help. I'm fairly new to this stuff.

r/AMDHelp on Reddit: Yellow Light Blinking on motherboard after Ryzen Master
January 9, 2026 -

I've recently tried to use Ryzen Master for my ram because my motherboard doesn't support ai tweaker for ram. I enable ram speed control for my ram on Ryzen master and it restart my pc. After this, my pc never turn back on. As you can see in the video there is a blinking yellow light. I tried resitting the Ram and tried a different ram stick. Also tried CMOS reset too and all of does not work. How do I fix this? ( I resit thr ram like 20 times already and CMOS reset like 6 times too )
