Troubleshooting ASRock Dr. Debug LED Error Codes - Everything You Need to Know
June 17, 2023 - People generally refer to LED codes as POST or error codes and any audible codes as beep codes. Basically, All beep codes are POST codes, but not all POST codes are beep codes. ASRock Dr. Debug codes are POST codes used by ASRock motherboards.

Official Solution: Disable Dr. Debug LED on ASRock X670E mobos (and potentially all AM5 boards)
Thank you! I have to say I'm blown away by Asrock's customer service. Their bios changes and lack of certain features is frustrating but overall I'm very impressed by this company. I believe they lost some key people in recent years so I really hope they can recruit more developers and OC'ers to focus on getting everything polished. I don't think he'd ever do it but if someone like Vince from EVGA went to Asrock that would be really exciting. More on reddit.com

No clue about that code , but to turn off the Dr. Debug display , in BIOS look under advanced/South Bridge config . Toggle Dr. Debug . It should still show as the machine boots ,but as soon as it hands off to the OS ,it should go dark.

The most commonly seen debug error codes on ASRock motherboards, and how to fix them
February 28, 2024 - Unlike other motherboards made by brands like Asus and MSI, the ASRock boards feature this LED towards the bottom, and it's typically found next to the fan headers or the power or reset buttons.

r/ASRock on Reddit: Official Solution: Disable Dr. Debug LED on ASRock X670E mobos (and potentially all AM5 boards)
April 27, 2023 -

There is a missing option in the ASRock X670E motherboard BIOS, which would allow you to shut off the Debugging LED upon startup. This is available on older boards, but not on my X670E Taichi. Instead, it currently reads out the CPU temps all the time by default. Thankfully, I reached out to ASRock and with some help, got a program that solves the issue and is now downloadable directly from ASRock's website.

  • Download, unzip, and run this program: https://download.asrock.com/TSD/Desktop/Tool/DBGLED.zip This will shut off the LED. Run again to turn it back on.

  • Follow these steps to run it automatically at startup. I set mine to run upon workstation login from the Task Scheduler (accounts for going in and out of sleep mode). https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12491364/how-to-run-application-exe-before-windows-startup

If you're curious on how this program was acquired and why it is safe, see my post here. There is no word on whether or not this will become a feature in a later BIOS update. Currently tested on X670E Taichi (Carrara) with BIOS v1.18. From my understanding this should work on all ASRock AM5 boards, but I can't confirm that. Feel free to comment below with other confirmed working mobos/bios's.

July 20, 2016 - Let me reboot, I'll tell you! All Asrock mobo's have the same debug code list. Edit: A6 or A2 (?) when in bios and 99 is the last code before leds go black.

June 19, 2020 -

Is there a way to turn these off after booting up? Im left with an F8 on mine, not sure why, or what this means "F8 - Recovery PPI is not available ". Is there even a way to make them disappear till you need them.

Thanks

Dr Debug Codes

Seems that no one on the internet knows what Recovery PPI is, strange.

edit: seems to be bios flashing related, system works perfectly, so I'm confused by this.

May 16, 2023 - Hi all, Just built my new PC, using the Asrock Taichi X670E and the debug led is constantly cycling through debug codes and never settling on one. The PC boots, works and I'm not having any issues with it. Any idea what this could be?
