Question Cannot install new OS on M.2, getting BSOD

[stikalo]

So, i'm not new with computers, love them from when i was young... MSDOS, WIN 3.1, ...
But i have never encountered anything like this, i guess im just getting old and lazy.

So i have this setup (see below) and i added a new m.2 ssd - WD Black 850x. I tried installing a new version of BIOS, put factory defaults. Changed USB thumb drive, USB ports, different windows image, ... and i cannot complete the installation. It ends with BSOD. Here's two of them: First right after installation is SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION... and sometimes is KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE.

Failure of new M2 drive is not possible - checked with multiple tests, all is OK.
PC in the same configuration works just fine with other SSD (with this m.2 inside, visible data aso).

From my last attempt, i have one dump file - DumpStack.txt if it helps.

Any ideas? Because im out of them

Try with single ram module.

Hm... will try. But i'm writing this on the same computer but OS installed on an SATA SSD.

Try with single ram module.

So, update: 1 stick makes no difference, that's what i thought. Firmware is latest on the WD 850x.
I took the drive to work and installed Windows here perfectly, will see what happens at home setup. Then the only thing is probably in the MB - but what?

Disable secure boot.

Do you have another hard drive you can install windows onto using the problem system. That will eliminate a faulty mobo. That would leave you with either a component incompatability or possible bios settings etc. The m.2 has been successful on the other system. Try it if you can.
