So the other night i had gotten myself a new m.2 drive for more fast storage. i already had one but only had 500GB on it. anyway, i have the asus strix b450-i motherboard, i installed my first drive on the back of the board and the new one on the slot in the front, little did i realise i completely forgot to put in a standoff on the backside of the board, for the night my motherboard wouldn't pick up any drive other than USB drives, the following day i tried once more as a hail mary it works.. and it did! atleast for a while.. after about an hour of gaming everything froze on me, the game gave me an loading screen for a good 5 minutes and then i got blue screen, telling me that it couldn't detect any bootable media... does this mean i have permanently damaged the motheboard? just want to put this out here and get a solid answer before i go ahead and buy a replacement just incase i do not need to
