My system has been Taking 3 times to boot properly

Hello, I have been having issues with my system for the past 3 days. Two of the main games Ive been playing are Dead by Daylight and Apex Legends. Do to Easy anti-cheat it false flags my Asus Aura. So when I play I have to disable it. Then I turn off my PC for the night. The next morning I turn it on and get a black screen for the first boot. Turn it off and back on I get the splash screen but it fails and freezes. Doing it a third time I finally get into windows and have no other issues. I've Troubleshooted everything by updating the Bios, Checking drivers, and Checking my Ram and GPU overclock,(They are regular auto overclocks). Asus Aura is my only lead because when it finally boots my RGB visibly changes to my presets. I don't know if that's the only issue but I that's all I've found out. If this isn't enough information let me know I'll try to get screenshots of whats happening.

This is the link to the current system I'm using. Again I've updated the bios and All important Drivers. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for your time.

I know you said you checked memory, but this sounds memory.

 

Are your memory modules in slots DIMM_A2 and DIMM_B2 as recommended on page 19 of your motherboard manual?

Boot to a copy of Memtest and run a RAM check. If that comes back clean after 3 passes, that's good! Next try disconnecting all but ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY external peripherals. If that doesn't help, do the same for internal devices.

 

I've had this be stupid things like external hard drives and USB printers before.

The 3 times to boot correctly thing is because something (usualy a bad/old driver) is not loading correctly upon boot sequence.. try something like Driver Identifier portable to identify if you do need to update your drivers..

Well I tried that to no avail ,but then I realized that Asus Aura was missing from my system. I guess I accidentally uninstalled it. I didn't think of that because of the Rainmeter setup I have currently going. I reinstalled it and now everything seems to be right as rain. I'll make a post if it happens again I just wasnt expecting something so simple.

Well I just don't get it Ive updated everything from what the identifier showed me because I went to the websites myself for the drivers sense the ones on the sight kept redirecting me somewhere else. It happened again this morning and now Im unsure as to why.

Im trying the chipset drivers straight from AMD because it looks like Asus isnt really keeping up to date
