My motherboard (ASRock X670E Steel Legend) won’t boot in to bios or show any video feedback.

I am trying to start my x670E Steel Legend for the first time, cpu, 2 sticks of memory (in B2 and A2 position), gpu and power supply. The problem is that the Post status checker for CPU is glowing as soon as I boot on the PC. I don’t get any video feedback either from onboard or pcie video card. Any ideas? I tried 2x4 pin and 2 8pin pin cpu connectors. I already tried to reset CMOS and it didn’t help. Also tried switching the 2x4 pins from ATX12V1 to ATX12V2.

CPU: Ryzen 7 9700x

Motherboard: X670E Steel Legend

Ram: Corsair RAM 64GB Kit (2x32GB) DDR5 6200MHz

OS: None yet installed

Most likely needs a BIOS update to function with the 9700X. https://www.asrock.com/support/QA/FlashbackSOP.pdf

Yeah to get the system to work you gonna need to use the bios flashback feature.
Which mean flashing the bios from a usb stick in a specific usb port at the back.
