I'm getting really frustrated trying to set up Windows 10 or 11 on my upgraded machine. The PC starts up through the BIOS via the iGPU, but now it's resetting everything back to defaults except for the RAM XMP profile. Other settings keep reverting. I've changed the RAM a few times, tried booting without the 1080, used different boards, and even disabled the Windows 10 bootloader and Windows 11 one, but nothing sticks. The BIOS still works with all my hardware, including the custom boot USB, yet it loops back to the BIOS. I'm stuck and don't know what to do next.
