    Asrock VisionX 420D - HM87-MXM REV. G/A 1.03 - Not turning on (keeps trying)

    I got this Asrock mini PC together with a working 321B model of the same type (except its hm77 and the board differs on some parts) which when trying to turn on, the power LED keeps flashing and nothing else happens.
    CPU doesn't seem to get any voltage whatsoever but there are 2 symptoms that i couldn't go further since there is absolutely NO info about this machine or even the other one.

    First one is that my 321B does a little pop sound when connecting the power supply (which is normal) but this one doesn't. Second one is that without it's MXM GPU connected (and only the CPU in) sometimes after flashing it would stay on, USB devices would get powered properly (otherwise while the power LED blinks, the USB devices would "blink" too signaling there is an obvious problem with the initial power rails i think) too but no posting or beeps.

    I got these photos of the machine, any possible way of diagnosing it without any info?
    BIOS doesn't look like the issue since it doesn't even send the 3.3v it needs at pin 8, it keeps fluctuating between 1.4 - 1.6v and 3.3v while the LED flashes.

    Also CPU seems to be OK, which is an 4200M, GPU was tested on the other machine and also working properly, tried different GPU's and RAM's but i only have this 4200M, can't test another one.

    Asrock a320m-hdv motherboard not turning on
    by netgearnetgear
    Good day members,
    I have a asrock a320m-hdv motherboard that does not turn on. This weird thing is that it turns ON when I heat the motherboard in the vicinity of the m2 slot with a blow dryer. The there is a capacitor and resistor in parallel that has a voltage of 1.79v and 819mV on either ends. When I heat the board and it turns ON, the voltage is 1.79v and 803 mV. It turns OFF and ON normally if I wait a few minutes. On the other hand if I wait for an hour or more it does not turn ON anymore. I have to heat that area again and then it works. I noticed slight heat for example from my...

    ASRock N100M, no picture no boot, but semi-alive
    by Exim
    Hi guys,
    I managed to semi-kill an ASRock N100M board after updating Bios from 1.10 to 2.01. It's a zombie now, dead, but not dead.

    ASRock N100M special features:
    - CPU soldered to board, small Intel 12th gen
    - iGPU
    - four POST LEDs

    Problem after updating Bios to 2.01 using the in-Bios update tool: no picture, no boot.
    I am not sure anymore if it booted at least once successfully after updating the bios to 2.01, maybe not, I can't remember. I think it did not.

    Symptoms:
    - no picture/signal on any of the display connectors,...

    What IC does AsRock usually use to make the PWM signals for GPU fans ?
    by MasterCap
    I have an AsRock Taichi 7900xtx, and the minimum fan speed is way too high at 1000rpm, and thats with it's Quiet BIOS switch on, and me setting the fan profile as low as it goes, while on.

    Now 1 thing I could do is just make some circuit to put in between the fan the the GPU, and leave the fan on all the time, but anytime the GPU is sending the PWM for min speed, I'll just send something lower and quieter.

    But does anyone know what how AsRock usually sends the PWM to the fans on GPUs and mobo's? Is it from the MCU that's often near the 12V inputs and fan jack ? Or is...

    BIOS .bin file for ASRock B450M Steel Legend
    by nolaryie
    Hi, I’m looking for a clean, working BIOS .bin dump (16MB) for the ASRock B450M Steel Legend motherboard.


    I’ve already tried flashing the official ASRock ROM file via CH341A, but it won’t post — I believe the capsule format is incompatible.


    Any BIOS version that supports Ryzen 5 2600 is fine (e.g., P2.30–P3.60).


    If anyone has a working board and can dump the BIOS using CH341A or flashrom, I would really appreciate your help.


    Thank you!

    Full BIOS Dump for ASRock H310M-HDV Rev 1.02 (MX25L12873F)
    by khanhtq0
    Hello everyone,

    I'm looking for a full BIOS dump (.bin) for the ASRock H310M-HDV Rev 1.02 motherboard. The BIOS chip is a MX25L12873F (128Mb / 16MB).

    I’ve already tried flashing the official BIOS from ASRock (version 1.40 and 3.30), but those are Instant Flash versions and don’t include the full SPI image (e.g. Intel ME Region, Descriptor, etc.). After flashing, the board powers on only when I short PS-ON to ground, and it fails to generate Vcore and 2.5V. Other rails like 1.05V and RAM voltage are present.

    I suspect the original Intel ME and descriptor...
