r/ASRock on Reddit: What does error code 00 and 94 mean in the motherboard when booting up. I have a 9800x3d and a x870e taichi. Happened past few days.
November 25, 2025 -

Day 1: I got the error code stuck at 94 so I decided to power off the pc again, and then turn off the power and then turn it back on, and then power up the machine and it seemed to fix the issue overall of having a blank screen on startup.

Day 2: I was more worried during this day since instead of getting 94 or anything I got 00 and thought my 9800x3d died or was killed but, tried to reset cmos and did nothing. Then I booted up my old pc, got the newest bios of 3.50, and updated my pc, and it seemed to boot up perfectly fine afterwards.

Day 3: Again this morning I got the error code of 94 and luckily not 00 like the previous day. I ended up shutting off my pc again after it was blank, did a reset cmos, and this time it booted up luckily first try without any issues.

Overall I am quite considered over what is happening. I have heard multiple solutions such as;

  1. Go into bios and make sure the pcie slot 1 instead of auto it is on gen 4 or whatever nvme I am using, same with the other pcie slot that is in use.

  2. Try reseating the ram and the gpu to see if that fixes the issue of it happening or unplugging and replunging in the gpu cable as well. But, I heard constantly replugging the 4090 atx 3.0 cable is really bad for it, so I would rather not do that too much.

  3. People have said to clear cmos and luckily this has been helping me so far overall throughout the past few days of booting up the pc.

At first I thought this was a 9800x3d issue and my cpu dying and I am still not sure if that is the case or there is something else entirely wrong with my pc or maybe some corrupted files or if it is just in the bios with the pcie thing being set to automatic. I got no idea what to do and if I should be more concerned or worried about what is happening now. I have had the 9800x3d installed and running since around FEBURARY incase people are curious, before then I had issues with my first x870e taichi board since it came in damaged since the delivery driver just threw it on my porch and luckily the second one came in perfect condition with no scratches etc so that's why it took awhile since the 9800x3d I have is the first batch from November.

I am not going to RMA the cpu yet if so far it is working or if there are other solutions but, I was curious what would be some good things to try out to see if it would fix it. I don't have spare 7000 or 9000 series processors, my old pc is an am4 build so.

EDIT: Before anyone asks, I have a cl 28 6000mhz ram stick 32gb kit from gskill the royal trident series. I have only ever used EXPO and have never done any PBO or undervolting or anything else. I have just used EXPO, since when I build the pc I was scared about the 9800x3d's dying etc.

May 25, 2024 - Code 94 is "PCI Bus Renumeration" at least it is on the Z690 Hero. I believe this relates to the process of determining what's connected. Is it possible that something is not plugged in properly?

Seems to boot up fine using onboard video via HDMI, but when I plug in the 4770, it results in a blank screen and gets stuck at code 94: PCI Bus Enumeration.

Whats the cause of this? My video card was working fine in my old build 2 months ago but hasn't been powered on until now.

Asus Dark Hero Q-CODE 94 impossible boot | Overclock.net
April 25, 2022 - I have exactly the same problem, when windows loads normally everything works normally, but every day when I turn off or reboot the PC I have a Q code 94, I have to remove the PCIe cables from the GPU and reconnect them to be able to access the Bios, I don't know if it's the bios that's corrupted, or one of the SSD M.2 that's causing the problem, or the GPU.

r/gigabyte on Reddit: Error Code 94 Aorus Master X570
May 11, 2021 -

I installed another m.2 SSD into my System (Samsung 980 Pro 2TB) and my PC won't post stuck with the Error Code 94. Weirdly I plugged the SSD into an USB-C adapter and it works fine from there. After that I tried cleaning it with Diskpart, Format it to NTFS, GPT Partitioning, Windows tells me it is working fine in the adapter. But as soon as I install it directly into my Motherboard, Error 94.

Specs: CPU: AMD 3900X GPU: 5700XT Motherboard: Aorus Master X570 PSU: 750W Seasonic Titanium

  1. SSD: 970 Evo Plus 1TB

  2. SSD: 980 Pro 2TB

I have not the slightest clue and it drives me mad, please help. I mean, even if it would be formatted wrong, the BIOS should still show up. I even reseated the Graphics Card to another place and interchanged the SSDs themselves in others places. It doesn't make any sense to me, that it works via Adapter and not internally. I couldn't test it on another PC so far sadly.

Important to note: As soon as the new SSD is out, it boots normally from the first.
