Encountered problems accessing BIOS because of a RAM issue.
Encountered problems accessing BIOS because of a RAM issue.
You're facing issues with your MSI motherboard's RAM setup. The error persists despite using two different sticks and enabling XMP. It seems the problem might be related to BIOS settings or compatibility rather than physical damage. Check if there are any firmware updates for your board, and ensure the RAM is properly seated. If you're unsure about the steps, consider consulting a professional or using diagnostic tools that can help identify the root cause without extra costs.
Verify the SKU for the RAM. If it appears in the motherboard compatibility list, proceed as planned. Otherwise, select an option from the list to resolve the issue. I encountered RAM problems with an X870E MPG from MSI, had to replace it, and experienced random errors where one stick showed "unknown" and half of the RAM was unresponsive.
