ASRock motherboard does not boot after installing a new SSD, showing error code 30.
I'm dealing with an ASRock B550 Steel Legend and trying to install a new SATA SSD. After powering it on, the system freezes at Dr. Debug's code 30, preventing access to UEFI or the operating system. I looked through the manual for code 30 but found nothing. To resolve this, I removed the SATA connector, disconnected the AC power cable, and flushed the power before attempting to turn it on again. The drive itself was working fine before this, but now it won't boot at all. I'm unsure why this is happening and need help getting it up.
Disconnect the CMOS, unplug the power connector and adjust the bridge connectors at the bottom of the board. Users should avoid altering hardware settings unless necessary.
