Good morning all, i built my first machine sometime last year and when its working its running absolutely fine but I'm seeing 2 issues at the moment and not able to get to the root cause so just looking for some advice. (ill pop the spec list at the bottom)
Firstly Bluetooth - i didn't use it too often as i mostly use a wired KB/M and headphones - however I've started to do more productivity work on my computer and thus have switched to my MX Master and I've started to notice that Bluetooth is constantly missing. Windows cannot see the BT device at all - just doesn't show up - I've found to fix the issue i need to power off the computer, unplug the power cable and hold the power button to completely discharge all power and boot it back up again - this seems to get it working until the next time the machine power cycles and its hit and miss if its turned on - or if the machine has been on for a little while it sometimes just loses BT - is this likely just an error with the Mobo and the components used?
Second issue is with the machine booting. Periodically the machine will run through the boot-up cycle, start to post and then just drop power. It boots back up and goes through the same cycle sometimes just the once other times can do it for a while until it initiates automatic repair - throws up an error it couldnt repair anything and then mostly boots up the time after that. (however it has cycled like this for a half hour before). Once on all is working fine.
I have tried without any of the machine peripherals or GPU plugged and secondary HDD/SSDs in but alas i don't have another Mobo or RAM to check. Mem test ran a few cycles and didn't show any issues previously.
The machine has a couple of NVMe, an SSD and mechanical drive, i replaced the OS NVMe and did a fresh build but still the same issue - in fact it does the same error trying to boot to the Windows boot USB as well so doesn't look to be specific to my drive/OS.
If anyone's any ideas or can point into where i can pull any more error details from that would be great.
