This is a new build, X870E Nova WiFi, AMD 9800X3D, Corsair Dominator DDR5 RAM, 2X 32 GB sticks. I do not have XMP enabled, it is set to standard in BIOS and Task Manager shows 4800 MT/s with 61.6 GB available.

As the title says, the Dr. Debug code changes fairly constantly during bootup. It is currently going between 44, 45, 46, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52 and probably others I am missing, in random order. I saw a few 60s last bootup I'm sure. Restarting does not stop this. The system itself seems to be running fine- I'm posting this from the computer. Games run, I'm connected to the internet, the machine is not laggy.

The internet says these codes are primarily related to the RAM possibly being bad. I don't really know where to start with this, the last time I built a computer it just all worked and I got to AA on first bootup.

Edit: I forgot to say I tried reseating the RAM, which did nothing.

Edit 2: After posting this, I tried resetting the CMOS for old time's sake. Now after boot the display just says 00.

Hi all! I recently upgraded my mobo from an asrock b450m steel legend to the x570 taichi. Everything is going well and im in bios, however im getting the code 98 on my little dr debug thing. I looked it up in the manual and it translates to "DXE_CON_IN_CONNECT" Anyone know what that means? I don't have any storage plugged in right now if that helps. Sorry if this is a repost but I couldn't find it anywhere Thanks.

Anyone familiar with asrock dr. Debug codes? My motherboard, brand new,, is cycling thru 00, 0F, 7F, never settles on one

https://imgur.com/a/NpoQc2z

I had newgg send me a 2nd motherboard and i returned the first as that one was doing the same thing. Chances are 2 motherboards are bad is slim, I would think, so is there something in doing wrong?

Ive taken out all memory to see if it settled on error code 53 but it still cycled, albeit it did have 53 in the cycle

Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the cpu countless times. No pins are bent.

Ive cleared CMOS after each time.

According to this website (2017), the error codes are:

00 - not used

0F - microcode not loaded

7F - Reserved for future AMI DXE codes

My Setup:

ASROCK Z690 Taichi MB

Intel 12900KF

Corsair Dominator DDR5

ML360 Illusion AIO

2x asrock radeon 6900 XT

I'm building a pc and upon startup, all components turn on but then the debug LED on my Extreme4 motherboard shows codes 14, 15, and finally ends on and remains at C5. There is no output to my display which is connected to the GPU. The manual only tells me that code 15 is PEI_CAR_NB_INIT (which I don't really understand), but codes 14 and C5 are entirely unknown. I've played around with my RAM and my storage, and found that with ram uninstalled, I then remain on error code 10. If my storage is uninstalled, I get the same 14, 15, C5 sequence of codes, so I assume that my storage is not being read at all. I plan to return my storage and get one that is compatible as per this sheet. My storage is WDS500G2B0C, which is just 1 serial number away from the one listed there.

However, I also notice that my ram is not explicitly stated on the memory QVL sheet, so I'm not certain that this will not also cause problems after I install the new storage. If anyone has any idea what those 14, 15, and C5 error codes mean, I would greatly appreciate if you could share. My bios is on 1.00, which is what it shipped with. I think there is a later version available, but I can't even get into POST to try and update it. The full mobo manual is available here, and my parts list is here.

Edit: It was the processor. I built a computer about 4 months ago with: mobo: Asrock z690 PG Velocita, Cpu: Intel Core i7 12700KF, Psu: Corsair RM850x, Gpu: OEM Dell RTX 3090, Ram: Crucial 2x16GB DDR5 5600, M.2 Samsung 990 Pro 2TB, A couple HDDs, Optical drive, Thermaltake ux200 cooler

Before the issue instability: every couple weeks I would put the computer into sleep and turn it on a few hours later and it would just be a black screen, no rgb peripherals or monitors lighting up/or responsive. When that happened I would just turn it off with the power button and then turn it back on. Sometimes that worked but if it didn’t I’d turn it back off, then flip the power switch on the power supply, turn on, a few handfuls of codes would cycle quickly thru dr debug, then it would post. And that always seemed to do the trick. I’ve never had a computer this unstable but also never had an asrock board so I just assumed it’s normal for this brand.

The issue: A couple days ago I started computer - rgb fans and board lights working right, cpu and video card fans spinning, fans still at desired slow speeds, but no post and dr debug held a 00 code.

First, I tried clearing the cmos by removing battery for 10 mins and that did nothing except sped fans up to default speed but rgb patterns held settings, debug: 00

Then, I tried removing the cpu, inspected socket, looked under processor, cleared the cmos, reinstalled cpu and cooler, started back up and nothing. Debug stuck at 00 no post. Edit: also forgot to mention that after this, I removed a stick of ram at a time and no luck.

Tested psu: Switched around pci-e and cpu power cables at psu end since rm850x allows that, clear cmos and nothing. 00

Yesterday an Aresgame 750w Guinea pig came in, tried hooking that up instead, Still 00, no post.

Today an i3 12100f and two sticks of ddr5 4800 are coming in to test. While I’m at work though - any ideas on what the issue might be? I’m hoping this isn’t a dead board and just a bad cpu instead because I’d rather try to deal with Intel honestly.

Hello fellow redditors. I have posted this in r/buildapc as well. I humbly come before you today in hopes that the reddit community might endow me with the grace that is the unfathomable wisdom of the reddit community, should you decide that I am worthy. Google, unfortunately, decided no such thing and so now I sit here before you, thumb fully up ass.

Now that that's out of the way, lets get to the issues... WHAT THE FUCK DOES A "5F" DR. DEBUG CODE MEAN AND HOW DO I FIX IT?! 😰

So how did we get here, you ask? No worries, I'll fill you in.. probably with more details than you wanted, but my adderall is kicking in so here goes. Back in May, I built my very first PC (hardware components listed below). After sorting out some initial difficulties, she ran beautifully for about a month. I got roped into house sitting for my parents for a week. Naturally I decided to pack up my new rig in styrofoam and take it with me on my 3 hour drive, so that my eyes would not go hungry for their daily dose of UltraWide HD (I mean what else could I do, return to a 16:9 aspect ratio?). Ready to show my baby off, I hunt down a surge protector, connect all the wires, and call the 'rents into the room. As the power is turned on to the PC, the motherboard RGBs light up, as does my AMD CPU cooling fan, all good so far. Busy trying to hide my throbbing penis from my mother, it takes me a second to realize that there is no HDMI output to my monitor. Upon closer inspection, I spot a Dr. Debug code – 5F – displayed on the motherboard. Instantly flaccid. My parents, completely unimpressed, remind me that I'm still disappointment (nobody likes change, right?). After a session of extensive Google searching and a popping a few beta blockers for the resulting blood pressure spike, I retreat and pack my tower back up. When I got back home the next week though, there was apparently no problem!! She worked:-)

Well, not quite. I discovered that the problem is intermittent. By this, I mean that it works fine sometimes. At other seemingly-random times though, it returns. Anecdotally, I've found that unplugging all peripherals and the power cable seems to sometimes fix the issue. Probably coincidence. This has been going on awhile now, which has given me the opportunity to observe the start-up cycle through the Dr. Debug codes in both scenarios. One thing that I've noticed is that if the cycle proceeds from 61 to 62, the computer will work. If it stalls at 61, it then goes to 5F and my monitor never lights up. I'm not sure if this is helpful at all. I have sporadically seen other "not working" codes; some I can't remember, but I know that 30 is one of them.

A search for this code shows that the 5F Dr. Debug code is "Reserved for future AMI error codes" – What does this even mean?! My complete build is listed below the Dr. Debug cycles I typically see.

When the PC works fine, it cycles through a series of codes that ends like:

15→[...]→33→61→62→99→00→**[enters start up]**

When the PC does NOT work fine, the cycle goes like:

[...]→33→63→61→😭😭😭→ 5F

Motherboard: ASRock X570 Taichi CPU: Ryzen 7 3800X CPU Cooler: came stock with CPU PSU: Corsair RM650 gold SSD: Sabrent Rocket NVMe 4.0 1TB GPU: MSI Gaming GeForce GT 710 2GB RAM: Vengence LPX 32GB (2x16GB)

TL;DR My x570 Taichi motherboard randomly displays a Dr. Debug "5F" code and will not send signal to monitor. There is always a startup cycle through various codes that more or less always goes from 61 to 62 close to the end. If the PC decides to cooperate, it will transition from 61 to 62, then to 98, and then the PC boots and no code is displayed. If it is not going to work, it will transition from 61 to a lingering 5F. This occurred for the first time after transporting my PC, but it suffered no obvious problem-causing blows and has worked about 60%-70% of the time since then.

Board : Z390 Regular

Been getting a swap between AA and 40 on my codes, I have reinstalled the cpu twice and tried each stick in different channels, whats next?

Pc been working fine for ages but now doesn't boot. Unable to get to BIOS or show anything on monitor. asrock phantom gaming b550 velocita am4

All fans are spinning like normal on boot and motherboard is lit up with its usual LEDs

Debug codes cycle every second: F3, 15, 43 94

Dunno where to start with this one. Cleared CMOS

Any help would be appreciated.

I just finished my new build and tried to get my machine to boot, only to receive the 00 Dr Debug code on my Asrock Mobo. This code is defined as "Please check if the CPU is installed correctly and then clear CMOS."

The first thing I did is strip my setup down to the bare minimum. I tried just the MOBO, RAM, SSD, CPU, and CPU cooler and got the same result. I removed the SSD, and same result. Next I pulled out the CPU to make sure it was lined up properly, then reset it and got the same result. I took pictures of the back of the CPU, the CPU socket, and the general setup of my testing. I have both the 8pin and 24pin power cables connected to my motherboard. I have done the testing with monitor and keyboard/mouse connected and with nothing connected to the rear I/O panel.

Any suggestions on what could be wrong or things I should try? Is it likely that I have a bad CPU or MOBO? (I just bought them both new)

It doesn’t seem like anything is wrong with my computer, runs fine etc. just wondering what this code display means since I’ve had it throw some crazy codes in the past.

I built a pc over this summer and while building it I noticed a Dr. Debug error code, I ignored it because things went smoothly. But no post beep. I've been using this computer for the past 5+ months with no problems.

Now that I have some free time, I would like to resolve the issue. I have a Z77 Extreme4 mobo and I keep getting the A2 debug code. I'll move sata cables, switch boot priority, etc and I may get the A6 error code.

As I said though, things seem to work fine, I've been running this computer since June with no problems.

Should I try and fix this issue or just let it be? I've tried googling the problem but with no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Edit - My pc switches back and forth between the A2 and the A6 codes, just to make that clear.

Edit 2 - My build is as follows:

           ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155

           Intel Core i5-3450

           HIS Radeon HD 7850 2GB 256-bit

           CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3

           Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s

           SeaSonic M12II 620 Bronze 620W

Having issues with these.

Im on my 3rd MB. I started with z690 taichi, asroxk told me to return it, got another, same errors, got a z690 velocita, getting same errors. Im about to exchange the CPU to see if thats the issue, but if that doesnt work, i dont know what the fix is?

Ive purchased new RAM, tried each stick of RAM in every slot , reseated CPU numerous times. Cleared CMOS each time. Ive tried both GPUs, and just 1 GPU.

Error codes are in the video but also right here

0F - starts

C0 - 2nd

15 - flashes super fast

00 - flashes for a little

04 - flashes super fast

7F - stays there for a second or two

19 - flashes super fast

They just cycle over and over.

Heres my setup:

ASROCK z690 pg velocita

Intel i9 12900kf

Asrock Radeon phantom gaming 6900 xt x2

Dominator ddr5 --- 4x32 GB

Corsair 1000w

Coolermaster ml360 AIO

Any advice?

Hi all,

I had big plans this Christmas to build my first gaming / work rig in years. However, I've run into the following problems:

1. Computer won't switch on

2. Asrock Dr. Debug code is blank so I cannot troubleshoot (the Power and Reset button lights glow white though. CMOS / BIOS lights on back of mobo plate glow red)

The specification is as follows:

1. be quiet! Straight Power 12 1000W

2. ASRock X870E Taichi Lite

3. AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

4. Corsair Vengeance 64GB, DDR5-6000, CL30, AMD EXPO, Dual-Kit

5. Corsair MP700 2TB - Pro NVMe SSD, PCIe 5.0 M.2 Typ 2280

6. MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ti VENTUS 16G

I have tried the following:

1. I have taken the computer to pieces and rebuilt on a table outside the case to make sure it was all connected, standoffs not causing issues, etc

2. I have made sure the two 8-pin connectors on mobo are plugged into the PSU. I have the main mobo conenctor plugged into the PSU (there is also a wire off this main wire labelled 'Motherboard' and this is also plugged into the PSU). AIO is all plugged in to Sata power cable.

3. I took out the battery and put back in to reset it.

4. I moved the AIO PWM connector from AIO to CPU1 and then CPU2 headers.

5. I tried pressing the power buttom on the mobo instead of relying on the F panel connectors.

6. I took out the second RAM stick to see if that would work.

7. I took out the GPU to see if that would work.

8. I checked the M.2 was fitted properly.

Further Ideas to try:

1. I am thinking it mightbe PSU or mobo related. I.e. surely there should be debug codes shown if it were any of the other components? The fact nothing is showing is indicative of PSU or Mobo problems, no?

2. Flash BIOS (but surely it would still have booted even if RAM, SSD and CPU are not supported?)

3. Plug cable into wall outlet rather than extension

4. Buy a cheap PSU for troubleshootoing purposes

5. Order replacement motherboard.

Hoping someone on the forums can advise if there's anything I'm missing or should try? I'm not a novice builder but I'm far from an expert!

Thanks, J

Troubleshooting Help:

What is your parts list? Consider formatting your parts list.

Asrock D1540D4U-2T8R and PCPartPicker List (Asrock isn't on PCPartPicker)

Describe your problem. List any error messages and symptoms. Be descriptive.

I got the board out of the box, plugged in single Samsung RAM, 8-pin CPU connector, and 24-pin Mobo connector. Hooked it up to monitor using VGA port out of mobo. It hangs with the Dr. Debug Code B6 (not D6 or 86).

List anything you've done in attempt to diagnose or fix the problem.

• Trying different PSU (Corsair CX750)

• Trying outside the case (on top of the mobo box)

• With or without USB devices connected (Keyboard)

• Clearing CMOS by removing the battery and jumping the cmos clear circuit.

• Plugging in external GPU (Radeon 5480HD or something)

• With or without Fan connected

Provide any additional details you wish below.

I already sent one board back for an replacement for the exact same issue. It's hard to imagine both of the board I got have the exactly the same problem. Maybe I am not seeing things correctly, or I don't know.

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.

Update: I sent back the board and got a replacement. The initial board was defective. I did end up having to swap out my RAM for some that was on the QVL, but at least the replacement board's IPMI worked with the bad ram removed where as the first one didn't.

Just got an Asrock Rack X470D4U with 128GBs DDR4 ECC and a 3700x

^{(ram is SK hynix 32GB UDIMMs} HMA84GR7AFR4N-UH ^{not on QVL but doesn't seem to be relevant to this issue}

It doesn't post. The Dr. Debug display is completely blank / unlit. PCIe slots and fan headers receive power, cpu fan doesn't spin. Green power LED by 24 pin lights up. LAN connectivity LEDs light up when connected but the IPMI LEDs don't (they blink randomly if i jiggle or disconnect the ethernet cable)

I don't see any BMC heartbeat LED. Also tried power-on with and without ram, discrete gpu, and other pcie cards.

Will probably begin the RMA process tomorrow unless there's something I'm overlooking that you guys can point out. Thanks
