So I just build my new pc and plugged everything in, and I wanted to boot it everything turned on RGB was on fans spinning, and the debug light was on red " CPU not detected or fail" then I turned off the PSU turned it on again, and it booted I didn't think much of it and installed windows etc. next day same thing happened. Today I have the same problem, but I want to fix it since my bios settings get reset I have to wait till the CPU decides to work, and it's just annoying. Can someone please help me D: IMG_0022.HEIC

It would be easier for others to assist you if they understood your motherboard and CPU specifications.

Your system preferences might be affecting things, as a post fail light that resets BIOS can indicate an issue. It could point to faulty hardware, or recent CMOS changes during startup might be causing problems.

It also disables my bios overclocking, treating it like an xmp profile for RAM and setting the CPU to 4.9 GHz. I don't get it.
