I'm having trouble with my computer freezing during boot up and afterwards. I have an MSI Z790-A Pro Wifi motherboard with a 14700KF processor and I'm running Windows 11. The BIOS is up to date, but I'm not entirely sure about that. After roughly 20 minutes since the last boot, it seems to boot normally, and I can access BIOS without issues. However, when trying to fix my computer with Windows auto-repair, it freezes. It does seem to work fine in BIOS, but if I restart or turn the computer off, it doesn't load anything if it's been less than 20 minutes since the previous boot. I'm stuck not knowing whether this is a hardware or software issue, especially since I recently replaced the motherboard.

We need more information about your system setup. What are your specs? Specifically, mention your SSD type, RAM size, and power supply wattage. This could help in diagnosing the problem better.
It sounds like you might be dealing with a hardware issue, particularly involving your RAM or CPU. Have you confirmed your power supply wattage and checked if the SSD is functioning properly? If you have an extra monitor, try connecting to that to see if it shows anything during boot-up.
When I connect to an external monitor, it recognizes the connection but shows a black screen with no graphics.
I have an 850W power supply, a ZhiTai SSD with 2000TB, and 32GB of RAM (2 x 16GB).
