When booting Windows normally it freezes during the black screen with spinning dots. No BSOD. Update KB5000802 (mandatory update) causes this behavior consistently. If I go into safe-mode and restore to before this update the PC works perfectly. Unfortunately the update likes to install itself and all I can do is delay it :(

 

I really need some help here. I can't update my computer at all without it either not booting into Windows or becoming so slow it's completely unusable. All drivers are up-to-date.

 

Windows 10 Pro x64 20H2 19042.964

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
Asus PRIME X570-Pro (BIOS v3801 BETA (latest))
G.SKILL 64GB DDR4-3200
NVIDIA RTX 3070 FE
Samsung 980 Pro SSD
Corsair AX850 PSU

 

I feel the issue is either related to a BIOS setting or a bug with the BIOS software + KB5000802 due to the hangs and freezes.

Apparently there is a fix for the issues caused by KB5000802 and a way to install them. You might be able to install that one from safe-mode or after you go back to the older version and then make sure it's also installed before rebooting. I am not sure it will work as your issues with the KB does not sound like the issue most other people are having, but it might be worth a try.
