Are you trying to use the drive and OS from the 8700k system, in this new Ryzen 5600?

Yeah, thats probably not going to work.

You'll need to do a full OS wipe and reinstall.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Did you migrate the OS drive from th older platform? If so, you will need to reinstall the OS, after you've recreated the bootable USB installer for your OS.

You forgot to mention the make and model of your PSU and it's age.

Yes but the thing is, the ssd that I had tested originally was in the intel system, I moved it to test it in the ryzen system and it still worked, booted and everything was fine, would that still affect it?

Sometimes it works.
Sometimes it fails.
Sometimes it kinda works.

Simply booting up is not a full indicator of success. You may be chasing problems for weeks/months.

But the drive you want to use isn't booting up at all, so....
