I've posted this to Reddit but I've made an account to ask here since I could use all the help I could get trying to figure out this problem.
So I've just built a new PC with an MSI X670-P Wifi board, Ryzen 9 7900X, and 4080. Two sticks of 16GB DDR5 6000MHz Kingston Fury. I'm writing this on the new PC right now, but my problem lies with something very strange that's happening with it that is worrying me a lot.
When I shut my PC off, and try to start it up again, either directly, or through a windows restart or hibernation (I've tried all three), the PC dosen't display anything. It turns on, the fans and lights come on, but the keyboard and mouse remain unpowered. Here's the most important part that I can't seem to figure out the meaning of: The Ez Debug lights on the MSI board, the CPU light is Red and the DRAM light is orange. Now, the only thing I can think this would mean is the cpu is faulty or the ram is. But after waiting a few minutes to nothing on the no signal, I force turn the PC off, and give it a few seconds. Then I turn it back on, it turns on again with those 2 EZ debug lights on, but after about 30 seconds or so (the regular boot time for this motherboard) the lights go off and the PC boots as expected with the keyboard and mouse coming back on. I am then able to use the PC normally, as I am right now to type this, however if I were to shut it off, I would apparently need to turn it on once, wait a few minutes, then turn it off before it will actually boot again.
There can't be an issue with the CPU or the RAM or something because I have tried running Portal RTX and it runs perfectly as expected. Once the PC is actually booted everything runs fine. So my main suspect is this being something to do with the motherboard itself. Either it's faulty in some way that it can't boot properly half of the time or there is a setting or something, I don't know.
It's also worth nothing that this kind of happened during the initial phase as well, where it would work like half of the time. I don't even know how I managed to get windows 11 installed properly on it in this state. I really don't want to have to do this reset thing every time. Can anyone give me any idea as to what's going on here? I'm going to ask MSI support as well. Let's hope the board isn't faulty.
Thanks in advance for any help.
