Hello,

Both systems experience the same issue.
System 02:
- I tested with two different processors (System 01 and 02 processors),
- Two different motherboards (exchanged the original),
- Three different graphics cards (Both NVIDIA and an AMD 5700XT),
- I have removed the M.2 drives and tested using a 2TB Seagate hard drive.
- Two different Corsair 80Plus Platinum power supplies 750w
- Updated the BIOS Settings and default BIOS settings
- Reinstalled multiple versions of Windows 10
- The system was running fine for about three weeks then this happened out of no where
- When I try to install the drivers for the NVIDIA card I receive an error: This NVIDIA graphics driver is not compatible with this version of Windows. Even if I use the NVIDIA experience and have it auto download the drivers.
System 01:
Pretty much the same as above, except it never worked...
Are AMD processors this bad? I haven't used AMD since my Athlon 1600XP, and have had a few Intel systems since then and all were rock solid. This is a horrible experience with AMD and I am looking for help, someone has to have had this issue, I see a lot of post but no one is listing how they solved it.
Asus wants me to send the board back, but they wont pay for shipping on a two month old mobo... So I would not recommend buying Asus at this point because their Canadian customer service sucks.
