Also observed you possess four RAM sticks. That’s quite risky for DDR5 setups. It may cause instability even without DOCP or XMP support. When the debug indicator appears (and if the memory light is on), allow about half an hour before attempting a boot with only one stick in the A2 slot (refer to the previous image).

Thanks for the help. It worked well, actually. You don’t need all four RAM sticks—just focus on stability. If you want better performance, consider using a solid, compatible setup rather than multiple sticks.

Sorry to hear that. The main challenges seem to be with older RAM types and motherboard routing rather than the BIOS itself. It looks like CPU and chipset memory controllers aren't performing well, along with suboptimal trace layouts. Since software fixes won't help defective silicon, we're focusing on newer CPUs and better motherboards. Right now DDR4 and DDR5 prices are fairly similar, so buying a solid 16GB or more is a smart move when you find a good deal.
