I updated. It broke things. Now im back on 2301. I just had similar issues with my b450-f board after updating. Luckily my keyboard still worked. i was able to downgrade back to 2301 using afudos. You have to create a bootable usb drive using a bootable disk creation tool. I used rufus. then copy afudos and bios 2301 in my case to the drive afterwards. reboot to flash drive. run afudos "bios name" /p /b /n /k /x without the quotes. this will force the previos bios and fix the problems. Or atleast it did in my case. I am back up and running on previous bios version with no issues.

I have AMD Ryzen 3600 with Asus Strix B450 bios version 2406 and everything works fine except for my ability to turn off the LED lights. When I go into Bios onboard settings, disabling the "Onboard LED in S5 state" (which is the soft-shutdown state when you turn off computer but the power supply is still plugged in I think), my Windows 10 Pro ver. 1903 freezes after I enter the pin number. When I use the Asus Aura program to try turning off my LED, it freezes my Windows right when I switch the LED lights off.

Every site I looked at had the same instructions for creating a FreeDOS USB in Rufus, but I could not get it to boot. Is there some trick to this?

Turn the switch on the top side of the keyboard to "Bios" there is a switch there

Thanks, that fixed the keyboard. I forgot that switch was there. I still can't get any mouse to work in the BIOS. I opened a support case with Asus a few days ago and they're working to reproduce it. We'll see if they figure out what's wrong with this BIOS.

Try using this HP Bootable USB tool:

Thanks, I tried it but it keeps saying the device is write protected, but I can confirm that it isn't. I tried 2 different flash drives.

Try these methods to remove the Write Protection from the USB drive:

So where is the best place to watch for updates to this issue? Apparently it's either not here, or Asus doesn't have anything to update (including a no-update update). This is my first Asus board since an old nForce 2 board
