Hello everyone! I'm setting up my first PC and running into some problems. The Boot dbug LED stays on after checking the CPU and VGA, but it doesn't turn off (the light never hits the VRAM LED). Here are my specs: Motherboard: MSI B550 MAX TOMAHAWK WIFI CPU: Ryzen 5600X GPU: MSI 3070 Ventus 2x RAM: OLOy DDR4 32GB (16x2) Storage: SP 1TB SSD (SATA) I've tested various SATA cables for both the CPU and the SATA ports, but nothing worked. Any advice?

CPU connects to DRAM, which links to VGA, and then to the BOOT SATA port on the motherboard. Make sure you have both cables—SATA power and data lines—and verify the SSD appears in the BIOS settings.

It seems like you're having trouble with your motherboard and an SSD appearing in the BIOS while not receiving a video signal to your monitor. Let me know if you'd like help troubleshooting further!
