I just bought new computer parts and got them installed. I can change settings in the BIOS if I need to, but my PC won't work when I try to start from a USB drive that has Windows on it. It keeps giving me an error saying "ACPI BIOS ERROR." I don't know how to fix this. I tried loading default settings and resetting CMOS, updating the BIOS to the newest version or going back to an old one, changing my RAM setup, and it's still the same error every time. The blue screen says "Restart" but then just keeps looping if I let it run alone. Here are my parts: mobo is ASUS TUF B850M plus wifi, CPU is Ryzen 7 7800x3d, PSU is MSI Mag A850GL, GPU is Asus RTX 4070 Super Dual Evo, storage is Crucial P3 Plus 1TB, RAM is TeamGroup T-Force Delta DDR5 32GB at 6000MHz.

Hello to all new people here! I tried putting my USB Windows install in and booting from it, but the computer immediately blue screens and shows an error saying "ACPI BIOS ERROR." To help me better understand your situation, could you tell me which operating system you're trying to put on? Where did you get that installer file from? Also, are you updating the BIOS or downgrading it? Please don't downgrade your BIOS unless there is a real problem. It's best to keep moving forward unless there are major stability issues.

I'm attempting to put Windows 10 up and running. I bought it straight from Microsoft's official store. I've been using that very same USB stick to install Windows 10 before, so it should work fine right now.
