Ryzen 5 HTPC issues

[god_bmxes]

Hey guys, 

 

So I've been having some issues with my HTPC lately. It started with the computer randomly freezing up and being generally glitchy, this was going on for a little under a week. And today it had locked with audio skips and of the media I was playing. When this happened I turned the pc off with the PSU switch and left it for a few hours, then came back later and power drained fully and reconnected the PC. Now it's loading the Bios "enter f12" screen and does not take any input but after a few minutes loads the bios settings menu. If you reset from bios it does the same. The only thing that had been done with the PC before this was using it as a test pc with ram and gpu from a broken pc for diagnosing what was broken. 

 

Specs are R7 1600x

8gb corsair vengeance lpx

Gigabyte AB350N Gaming WiFi mini it mobo

Be Quiet CPU Cooler

Thermaltake Smart 650w 80plus Bronze PSU

MSi GTX 750Ti

Boot drive is a 120gb ssd

Also, Cpu and gpu are not overheating, in a larger case with lots of airflow

temps?

Last time I checks they were 50 idle and 70 to 80 under synthetic load on Cpu. Can't remember gpu but it's not overheating either. Computer is fine temp wise, it's a good cooler on the CPU and gpu and it's in a larger HTPC case,  it's not stuffed in a cabinet or anything like that either.

I've been having problems where I've had to do this. Its been a constant plague. Check your event viewer and look for Kernel Power 41, if that's the cause its most likely due to Windows power settings. I cannot get Windows to take a new default plan, which means I get nearly 4 random shutdowns a day.

I would if I could get past the Bios. It stops there and cant go any further
