I missed the "s". It was generated by CPU-z, so I never considered it being https. I merely copied and pasted. Thanks.

Actual error msg: your submission is incorrect Validation error: A valid x86-secret url is required for cpu-z submissions.

I have tried submitting my CPU-Z validation link, which I believe is legit. However, the message comes back saying it is invalid. My link is a standard link: https://valid.x86.fr/ts44pj It does not have the additional language including the "-secret". I tried making it "private" by clicking the check box. That did not make a difference. Please help. CoachAub

Today, my HWbot Rank changed from Rookie to Novice. Does that disqualify me from the Rookie Ryzen Challenge #1? My submissions were made during my "rookie" stage, last weekend.

I solved it. It took more than one "restart". I did have one no-boot and had to start over. After two more restarts, it finally retained the bcdedit command. I still think the Ryzen motherboards are still immature in some ways. (I'm using GIgabyte/Aorus AX-370 Gaming 5 mobo with latest BIOS 5Fd.) Thanks for your help.

In test #3, HWBotx265, I have enabled it via the command prompt (admin), using the bcedit command, in addition to it enabled in BIOS. HWBot has the little red message that HPET timer is not active.

For some reason, when I try to run GPUPI, it tells me I do not have HPET and it will not run. However, BIOS is telling me it is enabled. I'm using a Gigabyte Aorus, AX-370 Gaming 5 motherboard. I have the latest bios ver 5Fd. Is there another way to ensure HPET is working or not? Are there any other BIOS settings that may conflict with it?
