Hi All,
I have a HP Pavilion 570-p044a Desktop PC currently running a AMD A12-9800 CPU. I am keen to upgrade to a Ryzen CPU but when installed, nothing happens, fans spin up but the screen stays blank. It appears the bios only supports 3 AMD APU's, with the A12-9800 being the highest.
I have updated bios's before, adding microcode to support Xeon CPU's in LGA775 systems etc. But I can not figure out how to make this happen with HP/AMD. Is it even possible?

The current BIOS is attached.
082FE.bin (Size: 8 MB / Downloads: 26)
Photos from CPU-Z/CPUID
It looks like this HP Mainboard (Sunflower) has the same Chipset: AMD Promontory FCH

And supports the same CPUs as mine PLUS Ryzen:
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers
