Lol faced issues with the build not booting properly, repeatedly restarting. I had to clear everything, which caused a headache. It turned out the M.2 wasn’t plugged in correctly. Now it won’t boot into Windows and just stays on the loading screen. Should I fix or reinstall Windows? Or are there unknown M.2 settings or BIOS issues involved?

I can't tell from that screenshot, but is that dot below the logo the Windows 10 spinning circle thing? If so, then Windows is trying to boot and failing. You can try repairing if that is the issue, or reinstalling. If it isn't getting that far, then it could be a BIOS setting or hardware issue. You could try starting the Windows installer and see if it even detects the drive. If it does, then it may just be some kind of boot order or drive ID issue, which could you either try to repair or just reinstall to fix. If it does not detect the drive at all, you clearly have another issue going on.

I made the changes to the bios, and the lord board still had the first release ones.

I experienced the same problem too. Can the system navigate past the loading screen? Or does it freeze? Also, when accessing BIOS, is the CPU being detected by the computer?

It didn't load the screen smoothly—it kept freezing. I ran Windows Recovery and it also froze. I believe it was due to a mix of BIOS settings and enabling fast boot. I’ll stick with the ASUS and EVGA board next time. So far, everything works without any problems.

It doesn’t seem like a solid board but more like a weak CPU. Do you have another processor you could fit into it while we wait?

I kept facing the same problem where Windows wouldn't install properly, showing errors each time I tried. It turned out the faulty CPU caused the issue, and after replacing it, everything worked smoothly.

No no dont get me wrong everything works now, it just didn't want to load because i had old bios and i also had fast boot on the bios , that wasn't letting me boot . I then did a bios update and turned off quick boot now everything works fine. The board has had like 8 bios update from the one i got.
