So my computer has been doing some odd things, Since this morning, the pc would not boot into windows anymore, its just a black screen and hangs with these bcodes. with either bcode 79 or it jumps in steps from 04>55>60 and hangs with the black screen.. with one stick it would boot sometimes, its very slowly passing the bios loading screen, after its loaded, it shows no signal.. If it hangs on 79 bcode, black screen remains.. i've also had 68 as bcode before.. i tested each ramstick in module 1 and it kept booting with 79 now.. i tried BIOS B aswell with no avail.. both were flashed to the latest versions, PC would work before, with these codes... but then this morning it didnt boot into windows anymore.. The motherboard i have was refurbised bought on ebay.. Ive posted several threads with no avail.. even on the msi forum..

So here are the lists of bcode's i have been having..

79 - CSM initialization : Black screen.
68 - PCI host bridge initialization : Black Screen

04 - PCH initialization before microcode loading
55 - Memory not installed
60 - DXE Core is started

Would boot passed the bios very slowly.. but then after its loaded it goes into black screen and shows "No Signal"..

could be a GPU fault. will system load to safe mode?

so reset bios.... test boot with one stick of ram at a time, testing all slots.... try gpu in all pcie slots.... try a friend gpu in system.... unplug all boot drives and fans and other ctap you have plugged into the board and test boot.


also take some tension off you cooler mounting plate, just in case it been over done

Tested all the ram sticks in slot 1 and other slots.
Keeps booting me into 79.

Reseting bios with the button didnt work either.
Clearing CMOS didnt work either, it used to work as a work a round, but now it doesnt change anything.

Cant test the last 2 you mentioned, since the board is on its way for replacement..

Also, the mobo was refurbished bought off ebay + This is my second fury x from sapphire aswell 0.0.
