Hello everyone, my PC has been experiencing startup issues for some time. The CMOS battery was dead, so I replaced it (common symptoms – BIOS failed to save settings and time). After that, whenever I power it on, it turns on briefly (about a second), then shuts off instantly and restarts normally. It acts like a BIOS reset but doesn’t fix itself. The graphics card is often detected too late, only after the operating system is fully loaded, so it appears in Device Manager but not in MSI Afterburner. Consequently, RTX Voice and Asus AURA aren’t working either. I have to restart several times until the graphics card starts properly. It seems unrelated to any hardware or software changes. The Windows Event Viewer also doesn’t help. My motherboard is an Asus Prime Z370F with the latest version (3004), paired with an I7-8700K and a GTX 1080 Ti from Asus ROG Edition, using a 650W PSU. Hopefully you can assist me! Thanks.
