In the middle of an overhaul, and I'm hitting a serious wall here.
My mobo (Aorus z390 pro) shows my RAM set at a default DDR4-2133 MHz and 1.2V, but it's rated at DDR4-3000 and 1.35V. Also, my CPU hasn't been overclocked yet, but it shows on the summary screen as running at 4.6 Ghz (default is 3.6).
However, when I manually change the settings to their default values (via enabling XMP), BIOS faults out:
Here's a pic of the summary screen. (NOTE: only 1 stick of RAM was installed for this portion, as I was trying to troubleshoot)
Here's my parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DRvkhy
Also worth mentioning is that I can't do anything after POST. Trying to run the windows install utility from USB or CD drive, it just starts to play the loading animation and freezes after about 5 seconds. But I'm working under the assumption that this is just a symptom of whatever this BIOS issue is.
Any ideas?
