Hello, I recently purchased a New old stock Asus Dominus Extreme and set up my new PC around it. I’m using a W-3175x, an Optane P4800x, and a P5520. When the U.2 drive isn’t connected, it boots quickly—within 5 to 10 seconds—and I can access the BIOS promptly. However, with the U.2 drive plugged in, booting takes around 30 minutes or more. During startup, it displays Code 78 for about 5 minutes, then Code 92 for another 5 minutes, followed by a message saying “GPU BIOS” on the I/O screen for roughly 5 to 10 minutes before finally loading Windows. Everything is a fresh install, and all firmware and BIOS are up to date. Do you have any suggestions or steps I might have missed with the U.2 setup? It’s my first time working with a U.2 drive.
