Hi guys, first of all, thank you so much for any advice you can giove me. I'll get right to the point: Whenever I try to boot up my custom made PC, there's like 20% chance it will fail to get into Windows 10 and go directly into BIOS or just stay forever in black screen. When it goes into the BIOS Setup, sometimes pressing save and exit does the trick and it gets into Windows, sometimes I have to turn it off completely and boot it up again.
What has happened: My motherboard is new, the one before broke down and they had to replace it. This happened like 2 weeks ago. I also upgraded the power source when I started to have this problem with this motherboard, from 600w to 700w because they told me my PC had too many Hard Disks and my Video Card commanded to much power. That, however, didn't seem to fix the problem.
When the PC manages to boot up correctly (most of the time tbf) and get into Windows, it works perfectly without any noticeable problem whatsoever. Games and apps work just fine. However, now I'm scared to boot up my PC and get the Black Screen of death I had gotten before I replaced the motherboard.
What's worst is that whenever I take the PC to the IT guys that made it, it seems to works just fine infront of them and never manages to fail in their presence, so they don't completely believe me.
What I will try to do:
I'm not really that tech savvy so my options are limited, trying to take apart the motherboard or trying to change the settings too heavily in the setup BIOS is off the table for me, so I'll see if this two things work:
The motherboard, btw, is an ASRock Z170.

- I upgraded my voltage regulator from a 1000w one to a 2000w one.
- When I boot up the PC, I'll do it without the mouse and keyboard plugged in.
