Thanks crocostix, I've managed to get it working (see post above) really appreciate your help.

I think I figured it out, it was a driver issue (although I don't know which one) I was updating a bunch of drivers after the installation and upon restarting the situation happened. I just did another clean install, and didn't touch anything, restarted and it booted in to windows just fine. Now I'm curious to which driver caused this problem. If I find out I'll update the thread. Thanks

Yes installed via usb (win 1909) and removed it while I was in the windows environment (setting up my preferences in windows) And yes I can get in to the BIOS

Windows only runs after the fresh install, but once I reboot or shutdown, it goes in to that situation i described above.

Hi everyone, I'm in a pickle and would really appreciate some help. I've built quite a few PC's in my day but never encountered this type of problem, and I'm hoping it's probably due to my lack of experience with AMD builds. I can install windows 10 with no issues at all and run it normally, and I checked that my CPU, GPU, memory, everything is working properly within windows. (also everything is showing up proper in the BIOS) but when I restart the PC, the AORUS logo is on the screen and the windows booting circle animation just spins forever and windows never loads. Any ideas?
