SSD showing 1 GB of storage...sometimes

Hi there,

 

After switching to a new graphics card, I have been experiencing some issues with the current setup:

   Ryzen 3600

   Asus X570 TUF w/ WiFi

   RX 590

   HP EX920 M.2 NVMe SSD (512GB)

 

I am constantly getting a boot error which says “Reboot and select proper Boot Device”

 

To remedy this, I have:

 

Experimented with BIOS settings (secure boot,fast boot, UEFI vs legacy, etc)

Installed a fresh copy of windows

updated BIOS

cleared CMOS

updated drivers

 

When I get this error, the SSD will either not show up in the BIOS, or show up as 1GB SSD (most often).

 

However, if I shut down the computer and swap either the position of the SSD or GPU, I can get one boot to windows and use it as normal. The next time I restart, shut down, or sleep, I will encounter the boot error and the BIOS shows the drive as having 1GB. I'd also like to note that there are no error messages on the MoBo when this occurs.

 

Does anyone have any possible fixes? I'd appreciate them very much.

take the SSD out, and put it back in. Sometimes it's just an install issue.
