Hello all, I’ve been having issues with Bios in my system for sometime now. My computer has been having various BSODs randomly while playing games like Destiny 2 and Monster Hunter and I recently did a full clean install since no repair shop I took the comp to could find out what was wrong with the PC. Since doing the clean install the computer would only BSOD while playing Destiny 2 now, and I looked into the various BSODs. All the different BSOD errors pointed to outdated drivers(PFN LIST CORRUPT, MEMORY MANAGEMENT, PAGE FAULT IN A NON PAGE AREA, etc.), so I made sure to update all my drivers and then I noticed that my bios would constantly reset on startup. I was unsure why this was happening and so I decided to update the bios thinking it would help the problem. Unfortunately it did not help the issue, and the same thing had been happening where the bios would completely reset as soon I shut off the computer at night and turn it on the next day, or any shut down/restart. I then looked into it some more and some people said that the cmos battery might need to be replaced, and I went ahead and replaced it and it did not fix the issue at all, however now if I change the bios to enable the X.M.P, it will enable the settings once, after the comp restarts with the bios changes and then the next startup/shutdown, it will then reset. Also another issue I’ve been having is that the computer now has a black screen when I start the computer, and I can hear the fans increasing in speed with the computer not actually starting and then it will start to start up and then restart itself and then will be stuck on a black screen until I press and hold the power button again to turn it off and on again and then it will start like normal where I see the aorus logo immediately, upon startup and then goes to my windows lock screen. Could this be an issue with the power supply and not the motherboard like I originally thought, or is the motherboard that is having issues, or could it be something else I am unaware off completely? Another relevant thing to add here is that the black screen issue has only been happening as off 2-3 days ago, and it was working fine last week but the bios issue has been going on for a while. Any assistances you guys can provide or even if you guys could point me into a direction to look into it would be greatly appreciated, as I do not have a lot of money right now to replace any parts as I lost my job recently and can’t really afford it right now to replace my PC so I am really hoping this will be an issue that I can possibly fix without too much issue.

    Ill take a look at the QVL but most likely it is listed as the bios and ram had been working fine a little bit before updating the bios. I updated my bios originally because I was having this issue and the issue is still happening but before that, it was working fine.
