Flashing Orange Light On My Motherboard
I have an Asrock A520M-HVS, I have a green light which I'm guessing means everything is ok and running well but I also have a flashing orange light above the green one. I have tried looking up solutions but all I can find is power supply issue, ram issue, overheating or bios needing a reset or update. I might try resetting my bios and if that doesn't work I will update my bios if possible. If you have any tips please help. Thank you

next to the light is there small text it usually indicates the issue

i read the manual of the motherboard nowhere did they mention the lights also it doesn't seem that the orange light is very documented on that motherboard i hope it is not the case of ow other motherboards have ram gpu and cpu seperated lets just make that 1 led and call it a day

Hey OP, if you could, please show us the actual light and get really close so we can see the inscriptions, I believe this is a RAM issue but it could be one of these four, it should say to the left or right of those lights what those they pertain to which could be either: CPU, VGA, RAM, and/or BIOS.

Thank you.

If you do touch the BIOS, and it is not BETA BIOS, simply re-flash the same BIOS version and watch yourself with ASRock BIOS's, some boards have extreme prerequisites.

You might also have some good luck updating the old AMD Ryzen Chipset Drivers:

Then what I do after is check everything with SFC scan just to make sure everything is good and also for piece of mind.

↓ Is this OP really talking about the back of the board (Networking) and not the front MOBO facing (Dr. Debug) cause if so, this will make me really mad spending time writing this out.
