[SOLVED] Asus x370 windows 10 boot issue

[Silly Yam]

Hey everyone,

I'm currently having a problem with a x370 mobo booting into windows. I've installed a samsung 970 pro m.2 ssd and its recognised in the bios and even boots to windows when I force it through bios once the computer has booted. I've tried disabling secure boot, CSM, ensuring the boot order is correct yet it won't boot into windows when I turn the pc on, I have to do it manually through the bios everytime. The bios is updated to latest revision 7403. The specs of the system are currently:

CPU: Ryzen 5 2400g
Mobo: Asus x370 crosshair vi (non-wifi)
Memory: 16gb (2x8) G.Skill Flare X PC4-25600 (3200mhz) 14-14-14-34, 1.35v.
SSD: 512gb samsung 970 pro nmve m.2
GPU: Nvidia GT 710 2gb ddr3.
Power supply: 550 watt silverstone strider bronze

Hi, Have you installed Windows with all other storage drives disconnected?

Thanks for posting Alexoiu, sorry for taking so long to post back. So I figured it out, silly me...
The problem was that I had the memory installed in slots A1 and B1, when they should have been A2 and B2. I also had the CPU fan plugged into opt cpu fan header on the mobo instead of the primary one, which was been noted in the bios but I didn't perceive that as a problem due it still functioning correctly. So once I corrected all of this, the pc booted straight into windows after a restart. So, silly little thing that I wasn't paying attention to. Thanks Alexoiu.
