New build, Z790 Lightning Wifi, everything is working great, but restarting from Windows fails to post. No logo. I get a single red light. I have to power off and on and it boots again just fine. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply.

It was DRAM. I took one stick out and it restarted properly, very quickly. Put the stick back in and it's still fine. I guess it wasn't fully seated even though the latches were closed. Let's hope that was it!

Yea let's hope it was that, ddr5 is very sensitive that way. If it does return without a reason, I'd probably look at the memory optimization and training options.
