Critical Issue – Windows 10 Pro Installation Fails System crashes repeatedly during setup.
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.

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