So recently, I purchased a SanDisk 1tb 3d m.2 drive as an upgrade to an already working pc. After installing it, my computer has problems booting from shut down / sleep / hibernate. 

Before adding the SanDisk, my PC had been working with no notable issues for around 2 months beforehand. After adding the SanDisk, the PC would not display anything after turning on.

I used the new SanDisk as a boot drive when I got it, but I am now using my old Samsung as a boot drive.

 

What happens when I turn the computer on:

All the fans start running and the debug led does not stay lit on anything. The screen turns on and recognises the signal but turns itself off after around 3-4 seconds later.

The keyboard and mouse light up to indicate that they are connected but the screen still displays nothing. 

 

My weird fix is to boot without any drives installed, shut down and reconnect the SSDs, turn the computer on again and BOOM it works.

Note: I am trying to use the computer without the SanDisk installed but the computer would still sometimes not boot.

 

I have already tried:

-Reinstalling windows to the new drive.

-Switching back to using the old Samsung 790 as a boot drive.

-Flashing the BIOS to an older version.

-Using the computer without the SanDisk SSD.

 

I know that all the components are working because after applying my weird fix, the computer acts like normal.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
