I replaced the motherboard and it functioned properly. I updated the BIOS to version F3 for improved 13th gen compatibility (the latest F4a adds more features, though beta versions with a letter suffix are still in development). To verify the new setup, I tested it with an older PSU for two days to see if the system would operate after shutdown, ensuring no hidden issues. If power cycling became problematic again, it would confirm the PSU was faulty. Luckily, everything worked smoothly. It’s safer to use a replaceable PSU than to test it in an outdated system, especially when planning refurbishment or reuse.
