    [SOLVED] Bootloop when trying to install an operation system.

    How old is this psu? If you can....try using a different power supply to see if it makes any difference. You might be able to take it to a mom & pop repair shop and they'll test it.

    I agree...... I think it is kinda strange that a 10th gen Intel board would only support 3x2 ssd's. Their QVL does state WD 3x4 ssd drives

    [SOLVED] NVMe SSD is not detected ?

    I looked at the manual for your board that you posted. At the very bottom with a little notation it states: The M2A_SB connector supports up to PCIe x2 SSDs only. I think this means that your board will not support a pcie gen 3x4 ssd, but only a pcie gen 3x2 ssd drive Your Wd sn550 1tb nvme...

    [SOLVED] Slow boot times...

    IMHO...... Using SSD's in a Raid configuration is not the best option. Are you running any software that loads with windows on start up? Disable the Raid configuration and try using the Samsung drive on windows itself? Disconnect the Crucial drive during the install so windows will put the boot...

    Discussion Can someone fill me in on Blu-Ray Burners?

    I have found that some newer music file formats that sound o.k. on a phone do not sound that well on a vintage stereo system with those vintage tower speakers. It is noticable. I don't know how it would sound in a car with a good audio system

    Yup... if you want it done right, you'll have to remove the board and replace that standoff with one that has good threads. Reinstall with all the correct screws in all the standoffs in their correct place
