Unable to proceed beyond BIOS or BSOD with Windows Boot USB Installer – New Build
Unable to proceed beyond BIOS or BSOD with Windows Boot USB Installer – New Build
My computer freezes with a BSOD: IRQL_not_less_or_equal ntoskrnl.exe I can't proceed past the BIOS screen to start any drive (I've checked NVMe, SATA and Windows Bootable USB). All storage devices function on another machine - I'm not sure how to generate dump files since I can't get past the BIOS. The BIOS sees the NVMe with Windows 11 installed but won't boot; it just restarts into the BIOS menu again. I've reinstalled Windows using a bootable USB, but this triggers "preparing auto repairs" which causes an immediate BSOD that restarts the PC and loops back to the BSOD screen. The bootable drive fails without any other storage devices. I've tested different RAM modules, various BIOS versions (A60 and A65) and reset the CMOS. All drives work on another system with identical components except the power supply unit. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
