I adjusted the connection of various devices and restarted the system. After several attempts, the issue persisted during boot. The screen displayed a brief white glitch before opening the UEFI interface after a short delay. When I tried to restart the PC, it reported that the device wasn't detected. I’ve been using a newer motherboard recently—switched from Asrock A320M-HDV 4.0 to B450M Steel Legend three days ago. All components seem fresh, but I’m unsure if hardware or RAM might be affecting the behavior. I have a Hyper X Cloud 2, Log P, mouse, Sades Sickle keyboard, plus HDMI, VGA, and USB ports connected. The monitor connects via DVI to HDMI to TV, and I’ve overclocked the M.2 to 2666MHz, which is higher than my RAM’s 3000MHz. My M.2 card is Apcer AT280 with 120GB, paired with a WDC WD10EZEX-22MB drive. I recently moved to Malaysia due to shop closures, and I’m trying to figure out what might be causing this problem. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
