Welcome to the forums, newcomer! is the PSU brand new? I would try and remove the HDD cage/caddy that seems to be brushing up against the GPU's back end. Can you take a look at the sticker on teh motherboard next to a barcode, it should specify the BIOS version that the board came shipped with. Just to be sure that you've got the latest BIOS version, refer to page 57 in your motherboard manual, and proceed to flash BIOS with the latest iteration. What cooler are you using on that Ryzen 9 processor? Answer from Lutfij on forums.tomshardware.com

r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: MSI X570 Unify - Errors Codes 'C5' -> '0d' - No Post
October 9, 2021 -

Had 0d errors with this board before, but persistence and rebooting (after dumping current/power button held for 30 seconds) usually won out. Today I got a new Lian Li case, Lian Li fans, and 32 GB RAM (GSkill Trident Z RGB, 3200). Needless to say, much excite/wahwahweewah.

Upon powering on the PC, I don't even get a post. It goes straight to error code C5 for a few seconds, then switches to the all too familiar 0d.

I've tried holding the Reset CMOS button in the back, specifically holding it down for 5-10 seconds, but that doesn't change anything.

This couldn't be a BIOS issue, right?

Do I try and RMA/Warranty the board with MSI or go back to BH Photo (got it from them last November)?

Is there another option?

Sincerely desperate,

A fellow nerd Raptured_Spleen.

r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: MSI MEG x570 Unify: Debug code "00" when powering on the pc
June 13, 2020 -

I bought a new MSI MEG x570 unify mainboard from Amazon.de and it is working properly most of the time but has one major issue:

When I turn on my pc after being away a few hours it displays the debug code "00", most fans of the system start spinning at a fixed rate and the LED of my GPU turns on but there is no video output.

I found two methods that work to help getting the motherboard back to normal:

  1. Clearing CMOS will make it possible to boot on the pc afterwards but you will lose all personalized settings you did in the BIOS, ex. PWM Fans and RAM frequency settings.

  2. Turning the power supply unit off and back on while the pc is turned on will make it possible to boot the pc normally and no settings are lost.

These two solutions are useful in the meantime but I don't want to do this on the long term so I am still searching the underlying cause of this error. I will be thankful if somebody has a suggestion on how to fix this problem.

I already tried to solve this by flashing the latest non-beta version of the motherboard BIOS (Version 7C35vA3), I also installed the Drivers from the Support website of the mainboard but it did not solve my problem.

August 2020 update: I did multiple bios updates (currently A5) but it still happens sometimes...

r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: x570 Unify debug code loop
November 20, 2020 -

Having an issue with an X570 Unify board that I just received, and can't find any similar reports. Computer is assembled and won't post. Tried multiple sticks of RAM in multiple configurations, multiple BIOS revisions via USB flash, but the RAM error LED remains lit. The debug displays as follows from power on, the best I can speed read:3E 14 F9 (hangs) C0

then it loops 00 33 74 dE Ad dF until manual shutoff.

I know AD is an actual code, but DE is at best an unlisted one and watching it spell out DEAD is not reassuring.

tested with Corsair HX850 PSU, Nvidia Quadro RTX4000 GPU, Ryzen 2600 CPU, and a bunch of ram. Notably Corsair CMK16GX4M2A2400C16 and CMK16GXM2B3000C15 which should be on the QVL for the processor.

Any suggestions before I start looking into RMA?

I'm seeing an error message of "0d" on the mobo itself. I can tell it's stuck somewhere in the path before BIOS because the onboard chipset fan is still spinning... and on this board, the chipset fan stops spinning only a few seconds after turning the mobo on. Any ideas? So far all I could think of was to try to clear the CMOS. I tried multiple times and nothing. MSI has a button for clearing CMOS...

r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: MEG x570 unify error code 00 won’t get to bios
March 2, 2021 -

Just built my new PC and it won’t boot to bios and is showing an error code of 00. All fans turn on but nothing is being displayed. Before building the PC I updated the bios to version 8 to ensure my new 5000 series cpu would work but I’m wondering if me flashing the bios has caused the problem. Any advice would be welcome.

Edit: thanks for all the replies and advice. I removed and reseated the cpu which didn’t solve the issue. I then reflashed the bios with the latest beta one and it worked and booted to Bios. Windows 10 has been installed and I’ve had no problems since then.

MEG X570 Unify stuck on debug code 20 | MSI Global English Forum
20 - OEM pre-memory initialization codes I would say a memory problem... What do the Onboard LEDs beneath the 24Pin power connector show? Use one RAM stick in A2, if it does not work put the other stick in A2. And the same with B2. And just to be sure, because you used dozens of PGA cpus: GPU installed too? Two days ago i got a new GSkill 2x16 Kit, one stick was dead. ... Both sticks seem seem fine tested one at a time. All slots seem fine one at the time. I had no EZDebug errors with two sticks.

r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: MSI X570 Unify debug code “00”
May 18, 2020 -

I’ve been searching for this issue amongst X570 board and it seems like it affects MEG Ace’s more than MEG Unify’s but the overall outcomes are similar.

The issue manifests when debug led under usual circumstances will read out CPU temps will display a code of “00.” No such code is listed in the manual. When this happens, all fans within my system will fall to base RPM despite fan curves that were initially set in BIOS. Windows is otherwise stable (no errors, BSOD, etc). I’ve left HWinfo64 up the last few times this has happened and CPU temps increase as to expected. The first instance of this occurred roughly one month after completing my build. A reboot will resolve the issue. Once the system reboots you can hear the fans spooling up to their designated fan curve speeds. After the initial “00” event, it has been occurring every 1-2 days.

This is of particular concern considering any number of CPU intensive programs could be running while all system fans, most notably CPU cooler, won’t be able to compensate beyond baseline speeds.

System is Ryzen 3700x, Noctua D-15 cooler, X570 Unify BIOS ver. E7C35AMS.A30. All fans are plugged into appropriate fan headers and all are under PWM control.

I’m hoping there is a solution for this issue. Any others with this problem please share your experience since I might have missed something.
