So I have a Asus hero z790 and just change the CPU and moved to a new case and thats it. Now i cannot access these two HDD which have allot of stuff i cannot access now.

The bios is updated so it can run the new 14900k effectively.

On top of that the system is constantly relying on the CPU at start for video feed and it doesn't just go straight to windows log in. Keeps saying fan controller connection for cpu cooler needs to move to fan header but have not had an issue...

CPU_FAN header should always sense a running fan or it would not pass the POST stage.
