White light after attempting to flash bios via Flash BIOS Button (MSI PRO B650M-P)

[RodrigoJoaquim]

Hello, I'm currently building my first PC and I ran into an issue while trying to flash the BIOS. My CPU is an AMD Ryzen 5 7500F so I wanted to make sure that the BIOS was up to date to support it as it was highly recommended to do so when I checked the compatibility online. I followed the steps provided by the motherboard manual but while waiting for the BIOS flash to complete, I accidentally stepped on the power cord and unplugged the power supply.

When I realized my mistake, I tried to reboot the PC to resume the BIOS flash process, but now I'm facing an issue. There's a flashing white light at the top left of the motherboard (next to the Flash BIOS Button port), and the Easy Debug LEDs are showing a red light.

I’ve done some research and it seems that the flashing white light might indicate that the motherboard is either partially or completely bricked due to the interrupted BIOS flash. Can anyone confirm if this is the case or suggest any troubleshooting steps I can take to fix it?

Here are the components I’m using:

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor
• Motherboard: MSI PRO B650M-P Micro ATX AM5
• Memory: Patriot Viper Venom 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL36
• GPU: ASRock Phantom Gaming D OC Radeon RX 6750 XT 12 GB
• PSU: MSI MAG A650BN 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
