I just finished assembling my system with a 10850k and an MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Plus MB. I’m using a M.2 SSD as the boot drive and Viper steel ram. If I do a fresh install of Windows 10 it seems to boot to desk top the first time (most times but it doesn't like the reboot after install) but when I restart it doesn’t won’t to boot again.

  • Tried a different hard drive, same result.
  • Tired W10 from a USB and CD install.
  • Move the ram to different slots.
  • Tried installing Windows 7, it just hangs.
  • Doesn’t always get to the stage where I can enter the bios. (1 out of 10 times, for examples)
  • When I try to reinstall it will sometimes hang at the before I can get to the install but after I can select the boot method.
  • Ever so often it will made it to the desk top and run fine.
  • No graphics card installed.
  • Don’t have a spare 1200 socket cpu or ram to test it but ones I have installed appear in the bios.
Any guidance would be appreciated at this point.
 
Thanks for the response. Bios ver is E7C75IMS, this appears to be the latest version on the website.

  • CPU: Intel I9 10850k
  • MB: MSI MPG Z490 GAMING PLUS Intel Motherboard
  • Ram: Patriot Viper Steel 32GB (2x 16GB) 3600MHz DDR4
  • PSU: Cosair RM850
  • SSD: Netac NVMe SSD 2 TB
  • GPU: not installed

Stanger thing is now says the CPU speed is 4.9Ghz, not changed a setting on it.
 
Thanks for the responses:

H60 cooler for the CPU

Disabled XMP and I set the RAM to 3600mhz, 1.40v in the bios, no change.

No OC settings have been touched, this has been like this since I first got it to boot.
