My PC isn't stable.
My PC isn't stable.
Hello, I'm having issues with my pc. When I put my PC to sleep for the night and return to it in the morning it won't turn back on. The fans spin at what sounds like 100% and all RGB lights are on. When I turn it off and then back on again I get an AMI "The system has posted in safe mode" screen. Sometimes I'm also unable to post and it turns on with fans at 100% and RGB and with a VGA error light on the MOBO.
I've tried clearing CMOS, updating drivers, factory resetting drivers, and replacing the motherboard, CPU and GPU but I still get this instability. I've even wiped my drives clean and installed windows again.

So I believe you're looking for clarity on where the issue began. You should be able to identify exactly which parts were changed when the problem first appeared.
Discussing the process of putting my PC to sleep at night
How is this done? Wouldn't it be better to use the standard Windows shutdown method instead?
Also, check Reliability History/Monitor. Are there any error codes, warnings, or informational events being recorded that either match when the PC was put to sleep or relate to failures in waking up and starting again?
I faced some difficulties initially, experiencing BSODs with various digital signature errors. Resetting Windows didn’t resolve the issue. After replacing the motherboard, it seemed to fix things, but then the problem persisted. Since then, I haven’t encountered any more BSODs.
It’s simply easy for me to stay in sleep mode. I’ll look for error codes now and get back to you.
I encountered an issue when trying to put it to sleep. The Secure Boot update failed because the system reported that Secure Boot is not enabled. Here are all the relevant events if you're familiar with what you're searching for.
