Are you caught in an infinite restart loop? Need assistance.
Are you caught in an infinite restart loop? Need assistance.
So I managed to assemble my new setup yesterday,
Details
-7800x3d
-gigabyte b650 aorus elite ax
-XFX 310 RX 7900XTX
-Corsair Vengeance 32GB DDR5 (2x16) 6000mhz 30cl
-Cosair RM1000e
-Lian li sl120 uni inf x 8
everything worked fine, system powered on. The two fans didn’t start, probably because the L connect software wasn’t installed yet… I’m not too concerned about that.
The system was uploaded to an American Megatrends page with a message like this…
Press <DEL> to begin setup.
A new CPU was installed, but the fTPM/PSP NV got corrupted or the structure changed. Press Y to reset the fTPM. If BitLocker or encryption is active, the system won’t boot without a recovery key.
Press N to retain the previous TPM record and continue booting. The fTPM won’t work on the new CPU, but you can revert to the old one to fix TPM issues.
I remember pressing “Y” but according to other guides I should have done it regardless…
Now I’m stuck in a boot loop,
The system starts with the gigabyte logo, then restarts but fans and other components remain active. It’s just an endless cycle. I can enter BIOS when the logo appears, and when I do, the system doesn’t reboot, but once I exit BIOS it goes back into a loop.
Any suggestions?
Are you attempting to restart a prior Windows setup or are you currently without an operating system?
I have the USB media tool available.
This appears to be the sole boot sequence currently set.
UEFI: VendorCoProductCode 2.00, Partition 1.
I believe this is the Windows USB media tool.
It previously offered my M.2 drives as an option, but now only this one is available.
I confirmed it was selected as the boot sequence and saved before exiting, yet it keeps looping.
Should I try a different method? Sorry, not very experienced.
Yes, that is the USB drive. Check if it connects to a front or rear panel port; if front, switch to the back. When you enter BIOS, should you notice the m.2 drives listed? There should be an option (such as pressing F10 or F12) to let you manually choose the boot device after powering on, which will let you select the USB drive for the installation.
The usb is connected to the back panel
The m.2 drives appear in the bios under the m.2 section, but they are no longer listed as a boot sequence option
f10 is labeled “save and exit” but there’s no way to manually choose the boot device yet
I can navigate to the boot sequence and verify that the desired drive is selected if that’s what you’re asking about?
It seems to reach a larger gigabyte logo display before restarting. Would a firmware update for the BIOS be beneficial?
