Hey there! I just completed a new setup (link attached) and everything is running smoothly in BIOS with steady temperatures and XMP enabled for RAM. However, when installing Windows 10 Pro from my official USB drive, it keeps crashing with no error messages. I've tried various fixes but haven't found a solution. This is really pressing—I can't even reach the installation screen. I've built several systems before, but this one is different.

I've tested it with and without for five hours. It seems the issue might be a broken Windows 10 Flash. I plan to create a fresh one tomorrow.

It sounds more like hardware problem that faulty pendrive. Do you have any win10 drive already installed? Try to boot that drive. If you'll see bsod again - it's hardware problem.

I faced a comparable issue, even though the error wasn't identical. Two solutions resolved it: switching to a different USB port and setting defaults in BIOS. JP

The answer was to purchase a fresh flash drive and generate a new installer. They delivered a defective one.
