Hello everyone.

I am trying to troubleshoot my newly built PC. I have been trying to install windows on it, but I've been unable to get to the windows install screen. What ends up happening is I get to the mobo manufacturer logo, followed by the PC powering down, and this cycle keeps repeatings. I have reduced the points of failure to either the SSD or my mobo.

To figure out which, I want to know what would happen if you ran your PC without any storage (SSD, harddrive etc.). Does your PC also loop between the mobo logo and powering off?

My mobo is B650M DS3H from Gigabyte. It was on bios F2, but I've updated it to F9c.
