I built this rig for the first time and it’s still not stable. It boots into BIOS without problems, but Windows 11 (64-bit) hasn’t worked consistently. I’ve put in the media, which sometimes freezes and stays black for hours, forcing me to restart. After updating the BIOS, cleaning the SSD, and setting up a fresh Windows install, it finally worked. I ran updates but skipped driver installation and turned off the PC. Now it won’t boot to Windows again. It loads into BIOS fine, then crashes when I try to start Windows. It boots into recovery after a restart, letting me use Safe Mode. I’ve been confused for days trying to figure out what’s going on. Here’s what I have: Ryzen 5 5600X, Asus TUF X570-PRO, 1TB M.2 2280 NVME SSD, GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, Corsair Vengeance RGB 16GB (2x8) DDR4-3200.
