You’re dealing with a tricky setup. Your PC uses an ASUS B450M-K motherboard with a Ryzen 5 CPU, but the SATA SSD MMO lacks a standoff, so you had to install one from the back. After reassembly, you’re encountering errors and a warning about high voltages. The BIOS still shows your CPU as R5 5500, reporting red voltages and a low temperature of -1°C—unexpected given the room temperature is around 23°C. You’ve tried removing the CMOS battery for a few minutes before reinstalling, unplugging cables, and reseating the CPU, but nothing seems to resolve the issue. No changes to the CPU or BIOS settings have been made yet. It might help to check if the CMOS battery was indeed removed, verify the motherboard model matches your specs, and consider consulting a professional if the problem persists.

Many people face this problem, often leading to an RMA request for the motherboard. I suggest trying a BIOS flash instead. There are updated BIOS versions available for your board.

You were wondering why someone would remove the motherboard to install a drive, and whether you meant disconnecting the main cable from the PC.

The device lacks a stand for an NVMe disk, so I had to attach a separate stand to secure the front one

The scene shows a tense moment captured in the stand-off, highlighting the key elements of the situation. You can see [insert image description or link here]. This image complements the discussion about the dynamics at play.

I kept one on each side just in case, not because it was a big mistake, but since my nearby PC parts shop had none left.

Consider giving it another try; it's possible the drive isn't aligned correctly, even if I'm not sure

The issue persists after flashing the BIOS, which suggests it might not be a new motherboard.

I considered it might be a short circuit since you installed your own mount for the M.2, but I’m not sure. Maybe give it a try without the stand-off and just connect it to the port—it feels a bit awkward hanging from it, but for a quick test it shouldn’t cause any issues.
