      The same happened to me with an ASUS Prime x570-P motherboard and Xonar DX soundcard! Since Bios 1403 and 1404 that I'm not able to boot my PC. Removing the soundcard "solves" the problem.

    My Xonar Essence STX was working perfectly before the 1105 BIOS update with "AM4 combo PI 1.0.0.4 patch B". Tried both my second 16x slot and 1x slot.
    After updating the BIOS, it gets to the POST screen but you cannot enter the UEFI/BIOS settings and there's just a constant boot-loop.

      @CarvedInside this one is mistakenly labeled as "work" on your chart I believe

        The list reflects the status for system resets and BSODs issues and not for the recent boot issue caused by BIOSes with AGESA 1.0.0.4B. You can read more about this in the page intro.

      Thank you for the information. With 1.90 bios have you tried any of the possible solutions, particularly 3, 4 and 5?

        I can't check other than the last x16 PCIE port, my graphic card occupies 3 slots, it's a mATX mainboard. No luck with UNi Xonar v1.71.1 driver, Windows is rebooting during installation. Unfortunately I can not check with a clean Windows install.

          I have downgraded bios to 1.80 AGESA Combo-AM4 1.0.0.3 ABB, switched PCIE and Chipset to GEN3, after that I have been able to install UNi Xonar 1823 v1.80a r3 drivers with no issues. I will post an update after few days regarding random reboots I had before.

          I also checked stable bios 2.20 (AMD AGESA Combo-AM4 1.0.0.4 Patch B) - the same issues as on 2.05 Beta.

            Today I received fixed bios(v2.21) from Asrock support. Sound card has been recognized by the system and It works fine. I still need to check if it also solved random reboots.

              Thank you for the info.
              Regarding the reset issue, the possible solution to change the switching PCIE and Chipset to GEN3 solution proved to be working correctly? When you get to test it, let us know if with the new bios you can now also have them to GEN4.

                With the new bios PCIE is set to GEN4, so far I haven't noticed random reboots. it looks like the sound card is working properly

                  Good to hear, let us know if it that changes.
                  On previous BIOS with PCIE and Chipset set to GEN3, did it work correctly all the time?

      The Asrock X570 Taichi will boot extremely slowly with an ASUS XONAR DGX PCIe under BIOS 2.50 (AGESA Combo-AM4 1.0.0.4B).
      BIOS-booting may take 3-4 minutes. (Post code will halt quite some time displaying codes for "SATA"- and "Memory"-problems. It even does so with different RAM modules in different banks and with no SATA-devices attached at all.)
      Depending on PCIe-slot used the mouse cursor will regularily freeze for a second in UEFI.
      The sound card will not be recognized by windows, no matter which PCIe-slot is used,not even if I use the slot in which the GPU works fine. Starting an application will freeze the mouse for 2-4 seconds. The system lags quite significantly though CPU-cores tend to be at several hundred MHz at most (check with Ryzen Master).

      Flashing the system back to BIOS 2.10 and everything is fine.

    BIOS 1403 this bundle does not work in any of the configurations. PC does not boot. It’s not even possible to enter the BIOS. Only removing xonar d2x or bios rollback to 1201 via flashback makes it possible to boot a PC

      You have a "ASUS ROG STRIX x570-E Gaming" motherboard right?
      With the 1201 BIOS, did you do had to do any of the possible solutions to make it work or it just worked fine without doing anything? Which Xonar driver version do you have installed? In which PCI-e slot was the D2X card plugged-in?

      Those possible solutions where not meant for the recent problem with AGESA 1.0.0.4 BIOS. Still, if you would like to try possible solution 3, you need to make the necessary BIOS changes without the Xonar card plugged in.

    Asus Pro WS X570-ACE — Incompatible with Xonar DX

    Updated BIOS to 1104. Unable to flash back to previous BIOS ver.

    PCIe slot 2 x16 causes system bootloop

    PCIe slot 3 x16/x4+x4 is unable to detect Xonar DX

    Can confirm card was functional on previous Windows install (on old storage) but after I purchased a new SSD, installed Windows and then updated BIOS, problems occurred.

      About flashing BIOS to a previous version, I found this:
      https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?99490-Flash-any-most-Asus-motherboard-Bios-in-DOS-with-USB-tutorial-Intel-AMD-roll-back
      Unfortunatly it doesn’t seem to be compatible with X570 boards.
      On my ASUS Prime X570-P, everything goes fine until a message appears saying “3 – Error: ROM file size does not match existing BIOS size.”, which is strange given that, according to the app used to extract BIOS from ASUS file, the images from versions 1201 and 1404 have the same size:

      Maybe a new version of the flash utility is necessary…

        I checked out your link and it looks like other people are also facing the same 'wrong size' error. I would also be careful with using this tool. People have bricked their motherboards using it and there's probably a solid reason why we can't flash back after the latest AGESA update. It's really up to Asus to release a BIOS patch to fix this problem.

        Also, I've purchased a new sound card to see if it was only my DX that had the problem. It's not. HT Omega's eClaro is also not being detected.

        From what I read, there's a Beta Bios (1405) for ROG STRIX X570-F GAMING that seems to solve the problem. No news about when it'll be available for other motherboards...

        Thanks to Reddit user /MoreKraut for the info!

        PS: ASUS sent me an e-mail asking me to try to change the soundcard to another PCI-E port, among other things. Nothing I hadn't already try without success.
        I sometimes wonder if they do this on purpose, and send emails that they know won't solve the problem or if it's just pure ignorance about what's going on! 😛

    It is a Sound Blaster AE-9 and not a Xonar but maybe still useful information.

    ASUS X570 ROG STRIX E-GAMING - 1404 (AGESA 1.0.0.4 Patch B).
    With my AE-9 my system will boot, but it takes ~5minutes. After reaching Windows the system is not usable for ~3 - 5 minutes. (CPU usage 100%). After that everything "works", but the Sound Blaster AE-9 is not recognized.

    During boot I cannot enter BIOS. The Sound Blaster logo is lit for around 5 seconds, then the light goes off. My mainboard hangs at status code 92 for a while (PCIe BUS initialization).

    I received my ae-9 yesterday, so I had no opportunity to test prior 1.0.0.4. I tried several things (i.e. GEN1 for my PCIe slots).

    the AE-9 works just fine on my old ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING.
