PowerSpec General Questions
Comments
-
Okay and once i'm in the BIOS?
-
Command prompt restarted but got stuck or gpu didnt turn on. This time BOOT debug light just remained lit. Normally when waking or even sometimes when I boot, the debug lights will all flash, turn off, and then nothing. Its just a 50/50 chance i actually get to windows
-
Okay, so the system does POST fine, your issue is with the video output, so we know where to look. Since the IGP is disabled, it would throw a VGA if the card weren't detected. Do you have another monitor or TV you can test with?
-
I want a 4090 RTX or 5090 RTX
-
See if your location has the G481 for a 4090. For the 5090, hang in there.
-
I've seen a few posts regarding the powerspec G447 issues with the overclocking error upon waking from sleep mode. Is there a known fix at this point? Got mine a little over a month ago and I'm getting these errors more and more frequently.
-
Which BIOS version are you on? You can check from msinfo32.
-
That's the SMBIOS version. Look at the top right of the next line up.
-
BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends International, LLC. A.M9, 10/28/2024

That's our latest BIOS. No instability, only happens when waking from sleep, correct? Also, you didn't upgrade the RAM, this is the factory configuration?
It's a cold boot issue, which happens. We test extensively, but every IMC is a little different so it's possible to see something like this when you build hundreds of units. You can tweak your way out of it. I have that platform running some testing overnight. I'll look at tomorrow and give you some voltage adjustments.
-
@PowerSpec_MikeW no Ram upgrade. Typically only happens when waking from sleep but there has been times where I have left my computer on and after a while I come back and it's just sitting on the bios screen.
-
Sounds like you're seeing some instability. Run bluescreenview and see if it has any logs:
-
@PowerSpec_MikeW Not really sure what I'd doing with bluescreenview but it doesnt show anything
-
I'll get back to you tomorrow with some settings to try.
-
Sorry for being late. I was out half a day yesterday and it's a bit crazy. I didn't get a chance to look at the board. Could you post some screenshots of your BIOS or HWINFO64? I need to see where the related voltages are for you. Mainly System Agent and VDD2.
-
this what you need?
-
Check the sensors page.
-
Not seeing it. I'll check it in the morning on that platform.
-
Please screenshot your BIOS on these values:
-
SA looks alright. VDD2 is a bit high. Let me test some settings in the morning.
-
Alright, lets drop the VDD2 a little bit. Press enter on CPU VDD2 and type 1.1. Enter. F10 to save and exit. We'll start there, if it's still a problem we'd push SA a bit.
-
Done. I'll give it a whirl for a few days and let you know how it goes. Sometimes it won't do it for a couple days and then other times it was like every time it went to sleep. I really appreciate the help so far.
-
Let me know. There's other things to do with cold boot issues. An XMP is still overclocking and all IMC's are not equal. You'll always run into outliers like this and these weird little issues.
-
No luck :(
-
Keep the VDD2 there. Raise the CPU SA to 1.25.
-
Giving it a try, will update.
-
I noticed where i changed the voltage to 1.25 the line above still says CPU SA AUTO. This stays the same?
