Hi
Ihave a brand new strix z390e mobo.
after a start (especially a cold start) i have no signal on screen in BIOS and POST phase i got only signal on the windows login screen and the white led on the mobo (means VGA problem) light. But i not detect any problem in windows and games. Just this led light.
When i restart the system or turn it off and on everything goes fine... i have BIOS, POST screen and no lighting led.

Somebody can help me what's the problem? its very anoying and confusing 😕

intel core i7 8700k
corsair vengeance 2x16gb ddr4 3200mhz

Is your bios set to defaults?

Save your bios settings if you have made ANY changes and reflash your bios. I wonder if there is a bit of a barrier for hardware communication during the initial handshake by the UEFI. A bios flash should resolve that if it is the case. Use the USB port at the back of the board and the bios flashback method please.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

I aready refeshd the BIOS for the newest version yesterday night. and i didn't do any changes in the BIOS. the problem still but i think rarely.
I just need to ignore this? or it will be a greater problem?

Are you using Display Port? Potentially a cable issue.

Yes i use display port but i don't think it cause the lighting led on the mobo.

I have the same "issue" everything works fine as far as I can tell, but that VGA LED is on 😄
