Hello, your PC is having trouble starting. It won't boot and shows an error on the motherboard. After checking the manual, it seems like a CPU problem. You've had to force shut it down by holding the power button and then restarting. It sometimes boots after the first try, but not always. I believe this started after you tried enabling WOL. You've since turned WOL back off in network settings, reset the BIOS to defaults, and updated the drivers, but nothing seems to work. You mentioned using Windows 11 insider, which might have caused a buggy update. It could also be related to forgotten settings or the fact that you're running Windows 11 Insider with a potentially unstable update. Or perhaps some settings were altered after trying WOL, even though you reset them. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting ready in my mind and have saved some key details. I really wish I could avoid this later. Thanks for your response.

Windows 11 comes with several problems right out of the box. A failed automatic update or one that conflicts with your system might be the cause. Have you checked the Event Viewer for critical errors? Did you review the Device Manager for any warning symbols? Avoid fast booting, as it can worsen the situation. Can your motherboard and CPU handle manual adjustments to voltage for the CPU and RAM? Is the build list at the bottom of your post current and accurate?

I know the problems with W11. I was intrigued when I updated and started using the insider program for AC: Valhalla, thinking a missing feature was needed that wasn’t in the stable release. The event viewer didn’t check properly since I’m not very familiar with it—it displayed a critical error about the system rebooting without a clean shutdown, unlike my usual normal shutdown. All drivers are functioning correctly. Regarding fast boot, I’m unsure if I enabled it initially; if so, it might have reset or my motherboard doesn’t support it because the option isn’t in my power settings. I don’t believe I can adjust the CPU voltage since I have a locked 9400F and H310 chipset. Lastly, yes, the specifications match what’s listed (not the signature), and the system info file is attached. Also included are the event files if you need to understand what happened. The PC booted fine today—though it seems the last issue was about two days ago, I’m not entirely sure. 546636901_eventfile.evtx

You likely have many HDDs or SSDs or several partitions on one drive, correct? There are file system issues on drive G that need fixing. This could be a major part of the problems you're facing. The kernel power error might stem from different causes, but if you can't adjust your CPU voltage in BIOS, it suggests either incorrect voltage sensing or a PSU problem. It seems related to the sudden shutdowns, so it might be the main issue. I noticed errors during the AC game where Windows couldn't authenticate and failed, which matches what you described. The missing feature isn’t clear—you’ll need to investigate further yourself.
