Is this typical? I've seen it happen multiple times—I was trying to disable a feature in BIOS that didn't exist, thanks to ASUS. It's a G15 ROG Zephyrus G14 with a laptop that gets extremely hot, almost like it fries my fingers. When I log off and back in, everything works fine. Recently, after reinstalling Windows 11, I didn’t check again and won’t do it again. Also, I noticed the CPU fan spins past 3000 RPM when I enter BIOS (there’s a fan speed panel). Any explanation for that?

I just reinstalled Windows 11. Did you do it via the internal upgrade route from Windows 10 to 11? If yes, you need to reinstall the OS after making a bootable USB installer for Windows 11. What is your BIOS version right now?

The laptop was delivered with Windows 11. I recently reset the PC recovery mode using "keep my files," which was the latest action before the BIOS became excessively hot. After that, I didn’t revisit the new configuration. No USB devices were touched.

I re-downloaded the Windows 11 ISO from the cloud, so it should be the most recent version available. However, since no drivers were installed, there’s no automatic BIOS update. Previously, I had updated the BIOS for the AMD 6000 Series through the ASUS website, which suggests it was the newest version at that time.

Ultimately, I chose to put the laptop on hold and let it sit for a while, hoping it would recover on its own.
