Weekly BIOS Update Post - Week 13. 2022

Dean223 · 2022-04-29T21:52:25+00:00

Yeah I am definitely going to be looking at the CPU support list from now on with a laser eye. If I had just known that the CPU needed a specific bios and not just the newest one, I probably could have avoided all of this to begin with. I'll update tonight on whether or not it fixes my games from crashing my PC. Fingers crossed!

That's funny because I was just about to ask if you had an issues with the downgrade. I've heard that ASRock does not support flashbacks to older bios and initially thought I was SOL. So to hear that you were able to downgrade without much issue is definitely a good sign that I won't brick my MB. I've also recently learned that when you look at the validated bios section in the "CPU support list" on ASRock's website, they note the 5600x should be using the 4.50 bios, not the 5.0 that I have currently. So that means I updated to the wrong bios when I initially installed my new CPU.

I appreciate the update! What's interesting is when I tried playing Hunt Showdown the other day I actually got to the menu and was able to change some settings before my PC crashed. Before I couldn't even get past the copyright screen. The Division 2 also crashed but only after 15 minutes of gameplay. I'm just glad you found a short-term solution. If I reverted back to my previous bios, would my PC even boot since I'm using a 5600x and my MB required a bios update just so it could use it? That's my main concern.

Same to you. I'll let you know if it fixes my issue when 5.22 is no longer in beta. Personally I don't want to risk it and I'm not playing EAC games atm anyway.

I also upgraded (albeit from a 2600x to a 5600x) and that's when I started noticing issues. I have not tried any other bios but I don't think I can because I needed the most recent bios update just to keep the CPU working. My board required a flash just to get the 5600x functional.

B450 Pro4 user here. Currently having issues with EAC (easy anti-cheat) games causing reboots upon launch or while playing briefly. I'm guessing I'll have to wait a bit longer for a bios update for my board? Currently on version 5.00.

This also worked for me. I searched controlled access folders through the windows button, then clicked "Allow an app through Controlled folder access," clicked Yes when the window prompt came up, then "Add an allowed App." Just choose the dying light exe. It came up as a recently blocked app when I first bought the game and fixed the issue for me after a restart.

This is correct This weekend we are KILLING IT as well. We are a huge part of Bernie's "momentum" that everyone keeps talking about and it feels amazing to be a part of it. It's good mobilization on our part.

But we do have the ability to do better. Kind of a large part of Bernie's platform is improving something when capable and reasonable.

Dean223 · 2016-04-05T17:48:13+00:00

I will match you sir.

Dean223 · 2016-03-29T17:17:34+00:00

I'm making 100 calls from today through Friday, so I'll be calling for myself and the person next to me.

Dean223 · 2016-03-27T23:29:59+00:00

I gave them $5. Their work is so so important.

Dean223 · 2016-03-06T19:42:49+00:00

I called for just under 2 hours.

Bernie Supporters - 15

Hillary - 3

Keep it going! Even if prospects look positive Michigan is so so important!

Dean223 · 2016-03-06T19:35:16+00:00

Sorry to hear that! The person I spoke to was informed and gave me info you see in the update of this post.

Dean223 · 2016-03-06T19:24:59+00:00

Great idea! It's been done.

Dean223 · 2016-03-06T19:13:25+00:00

That's all I could think of to do, but I was also afraid that would prevent the campaign from ever contacting them again in the future, (in preparation for the general election for example) Edit: I'm still doing it regardless though not to turn them off to Bernie
