CPU Ryzen 7 2700X
GPU GTX 1080
Motherboard B450-HDV (There is 2 or 3 different types of these on pcpartspicker. Not sure the exact type)
RAM Corsair 32 Gigs 2X16
PSU P750GM (Previously PSU due to circumstances, had probable power surge. Then stopped working - Replaced with new PSU - Suddenly shut off probably due to water, then tried to immediately turn on again. Computer instantly turned on, and then off)
SSD 1 Terabyte (I forget the specific specs - I think it was an 860 Evo)
Motherboard has some damage, due to possible corrosion - Doubtful that the cause is the motherboard. Most probable cause is the SSD, and more specifically a driver initialization failure. Working hypothesis, si due to the way, in which the problem presents itself. It takes a few seconds for display to show POST / brand or inital screen, or whatever it is called. Then it shows, and after approximately 5-10 seconds it goes to black screen and then back to boot / POST inital screen. After the second time, it goes to screen where it shows the LOADING WHEEL/ / DOTS or whatevre it is called. After the wheel . dots goes around approximately 2 or 3 times, the computer does a hard shut down sort of thing, where it does NOT immediately allow the computer start button to work. At this point, out of fear of damaging computer components, i always unplug the computer. Then after approximatey 10-20 seconds i plug the power cord back in. Sometimes, if i plug the power cord in too soon, i still ahve to wait for the aproximate 10-20 seconds to pass, before the computer power button, THE ONE AT THE FRONT works again.
Only thing i have not tried yet is, enable bootlogging (to see if i can possibly idenifier any drivers causing this), and ALSO, "Reset this PC", which will reset the computer back to factory default settings, whiel saving personal files.
So it is most probably an SSD / software issue, though, there is a SLIGHT probability that it is, in fact, a hardware / motherboard issue. Please help.
