Hardware includes an RTX 3070 MSI ventus 3x OC, Ryzen 5 5600X, Asus rog strix B550-E gaming, Crucial ballistix 8x2 at 3200 MHz. I've been using this system for over two years and a half. Yesterday it crashed suddenly, flashing a red light on the motherboard. After powering it down and waiting 15 minutes, I tried booting again but encountered an orange light and a Q-CODE 07. Removing one of the RAM modules helped me access the American Megatrends screen. I couldn't start in safe mode because I had unplugged all peripherals to place the PC on the desk. Once connected, it froze at the "press F2 or Del to enter BIOS" screen and wouldn't respond to keyboard input. I haven't been able to reproduce the previous crashes, only the orange static light and Q-CODE 07 now. I've reset the dims multiple times, even checking one at a time, but updated the BIOS via BIOS flash and reset the CMOS battery without success. The GPU fans, case, and CPU fans are all running. I'm unsure what to do next.
