Help! My PC is Stuck at the AsRock Logo—What Can I Do?
Asked by

I'm having a major issue with my PC—it just gets stuck on the AsRock logo with a spinning circle that never moves. I've tried restarting it, but it seems frozen on that screen. Any advice on how to fix this?

It might be a BIOS issue, especially with Ryzen CPUs. You could try updating the BIOS. Download the latest stable version on a USB stick and plug it into the right slot on your motherboard. There should be a guide in your manual to help with that.

If it's been stuck for 20 minutes or more, that's quite a while. AMD systems can sometimes take a bit longer to ‘train’ the memory, but there’s a limit. You might want to try resetting it if this doesn’t resolve soon.

If you just built your PC, consider resetting the CMOS. That can sometimes resolve boot issues. Also, check how long it’s been on the logo; sometimes, a lot of memory might cause it to take longer to initialize.

Sounds like a classic case of being stuck during boot up. Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in? Sometimes that can clear up weird issues like this.
