Hi,

I just built the below system, but having some odd issue with booting up.

After system was built it posted as I'd hoped, proceeded to install OS, so far all fine, once system is left powered off for a few hours it will not boot anymore.

Few things I've noticed, is that sometimes the BIOS shows that the NVME drives doesn't exist, after the second reboot it will appear but it will continue to be stuck in a "preparing automatic repair" loop, no mater what I try it doesn't boot anymore.

I then proceeded to reinstall the OS for basically the same thing to happen once I turn off the PC for a few hours.

What could be causing this to happen?

(Tried different M.2 slot, no difference)

MSI MPG B550 Gaming Edge WiFi
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X Eight Core 4.7GHz
Seasonic Focus GX-750 750W 80+ Gold Modular Power Supply
Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO Black 32GB
WD Blue SN550 2TB SSD NVME M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 Solid State Drive (WDS200T2B0C)

Thanks
 
ok so updated the bios and left the machine off until this morning.

- Powering 1st attempt - During boot it loaded the MSI MPG image and proceeded to just turn off.
- Powering 2nd attempt - No issues, an improvement but not confident in if it will last as its just not booting clean.
 
Hi,
Still having issues with this new build, changed the WD Blue SN550 to a Sabrent rocket 1tb and now have a different issue completely.

System boots perfectly normal now but the issue I'm experiencing is a random freezes, seems to occur when browsing / watching youtube.

Its a very odd freeze with no BSOD and no event viewer entries during the crash, the mouse / keyboard will work for a while but you cant do much, it will slowly get worse to the point you have to force reboot. Never seen anything like it before.

I have tried another standard SSD with a clean build and it still happens so I'm at a loss on what to try next. (All I did was install the latest chipset drivers, update windows and the graphics card drivers opened youtube and some other random sites and eventually it crashed)

Any suggestions?
 
Does sound like a strange issue and without other parts to swap and test it won't be easy to narrow it down

You could rule out memory first, take out all sticks and out just 1 in the first slot and test, if still failing put it in another slot, if still failing use a different stick, if still failing it's not the memory lol

I'd be setting the memory to stock and running memtest first.

If you have a SATA SSD, make sure the cables are firmly secured.

Run a chkdsk / sfc on the SSD with Windows, especially if you're using a mirror or cloned Windows because all those reboots and freezes can easily corrupt system files.

If it only occurs when browsing I'd consider disabling power saving features too (there's been a few threads here with faulty ryzens that are unstable at idle), but hopefully it won't come to that.
 
I'll give the memtest a go and try one stick etc, I'm currently waiting for it to freeze again before I try the next thing.

One thing is that I can play a game for hours without any issues, it seems to be around browsing that it freezes up, its never done it without a browser open so far that is. (Does it in both edge and chrome)

@Tetras I've had the same issue on both the M.2 sabrent and then a SATA SSD both with clean builds.
@CvrPaddyCvr The GPU works fine in my old rig and never had it freeze, my old rig gave me no issues for 5/6 years.
