I would just like to thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, one trip to Best Buy later. Confirms my suspicion, install the brand new off the shelf two terabyte, samsung nvme got home, slotted it in place of the old drive plug the u s b boot disk back in ran the installer, and it booted straight to the desk top zero issues. At some point between leaving my old motherboard and being installed on the new one, something must have broke on it. Because I tried installing it in the second m.2 slot to format it and the computer would keep blue screening until I took it back out.

I recently updated my pcs motherboard and cpu to an Asrock B850M and a Ryzen 5 9600X. Everything's all put together and can boot into bios. Bios recognized both my sata drive and m.2. But detects no boot drives. I tried fresh installing windows but the pc just tries to boot of the usb again. CSM is disabled because I cannot enable it without the screen just going black. I managed to get csm on for one boot and it showed both drives under boot priority but then just booted to a black screen. I'm lost. It's been 5 years since I've built a computer and iver never had something like this happen. I can't access boot priority because there is no drives under it but both drives are detected. Everytime i enable CSM i have to bridge the cmos reset pins to get back to the bios menu where it's disabled again.

CSM is compatibility support module - you shouldn't use it unless if using really old / propriatery hardware, the same case as Secure Boot which should be used.

 

Which Windows version are you trying to install and how old is the installation USB (when was the installation created)?

That list helped me on a previous system, I didn't need it for my current system. But it might help you.

Here is the whole procedure for install of windows on nvme drive.

1 - Make sure you unplug all SATA and USB drives, the M.2 drive has to be the only drive installed.
2 - Go into the bios, under the boot tab there is an option for CSM, make sure it is disabled.
3 - Click on secure boot option below and make sure it is set to other OS, Not windows UEFI.
4 - Click on key management and clear secure boot keys.
5 - Insert a USB memory stick with a UEFI bootable ISO of Windows 10 on it.
6 - Press F10 to save, exit and reboot.
7 - Windows will now start installing to your NVME drive as it has its own NVME driver built in.
8 - When the PC reboots hit F2 to go back into the BIOS, you will see under boot priority that Windows boot manager now lists your NVME drive.
9 - Click on secure boot again but now set it to Windows UEFI mode.
10 - Click on key management and install default secure boot keys
11 - Press F10 to save and exit and windows will finish the install.

Once you have Windows up and running, shutdown the PC and reconnect your other SATA drives. 

If you don't quote us, we won't know you answered

Following this the nvme managed to show up in the boot priority menu. But the issue is when I boot into the drive the screen is black with one small white line in the top left corner

I would just like to thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, one trip to Best Buy later. Confirms my suspicion, install the brand new off the shelf two terabyte, samsung nvme got home, slotted it in place of the old drive plug the u s b boot disk back in ran the installer, and it booted straight to the desk top zero issues. At some point between leaving my old motherboard and being installed on the new one, something must have broke on it.
