ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ Motherboard Spectre Bios Patch v1.60 w/ PCIe Slot Detection

[rebelmalangi]

Hi Guys
          For me Asrock H110 shows 10 Gpus out of 11 GPUs, if I waste my time by change riser on MBOS it shows 11 GPUs but after crash it again shows 10 GPUs .I opened a support with Asrock and waiting for their response on this ... waiting for 2 days no reply till now

Do you this this PCIE detection feature can help me on my issue or fix the detection issue.

The PCI-E detection feature shows you if a GPU isn't being detected by a PCI-E slot, so you can check if it's a loose connection or a bad riser. It's unlikely the mothorboard is causing the GPU to crash. It's more likely it could be a bad riser or USB cable.

The PCI-E slots are too close together on the ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ motherboard. Make sure the prongs on the back of the x1 PCI-E connector from the riser is not touching the USB connector on the riser connector next to it. It will cause a short and cause the GPU not to be detected. I put two pieces of electrical tape on the back of the x1 connectors to prevent it. Also make sure the x1 connector is making good contact with the x1 PCI-E slot. Sometimes risers have poorly designed connectors that can lose contact, same as the USB cables on the risers.

Hello,

my rig was running very well and stable with uefi 1.50.

i updated the H110 Pro BTC+ today to 1.60 and there is no video output now, it does not boot, no network, no remote windows/rdp, nothing and after a minute it powers off itself.

could you please advise how can i fix this ... hardware?

thank you

why would you bios update a stable dedicated mining rig???

unplug gpus, power cycle and try to downgrade.
If it doesnt boot without gpus your sol, its bricked.

sorry, my bad, problem identified.
i forgot to suspend bitlocker before the bios update (and it did not warn me).

after bios was updated, the video output was moved from integrated port which i was using to the long pcie slot.
so when i switched the monitor cable, the screen was showing ENTER BITLOCKER RECOVERY KEY prompt and if it wasn't entered within a minute, the rig was turned off ...

No problems for me with the new Bios v1.20. It's been running great more than a day.
