New build steel legend z890 WiFi unstable

   Hi, I?�m having blue screen of death issues with a new build that I?�ve just built.

Specs Asrock Steel Legend z890 Intel core ultra 7k 1851 Corsair vengeance 32x2 DDR5. Cmk64GX5M286200c33. Be quiet zone2 1000w psu Samsung 990 evo plus gen 5 nvme. Nocturnal MJ d15 g2 air cooler Month king 95 pro case

Every thing seemed ok building. Had issues with the RAM on power up. Kept getting error messages the system failed to boot several times before. You may press f2 or del to reconfigure your system. I couldn?�t run the RAM at default speeds. I tried reseating the RAM into slots A2 and B2. Ive done BIOS updates and those messages have gone but now I?�m having issues with BSOD installing windows. I?�ve tried different RAM speeds and no matter how much I under clock i still get BSOD when installing windows. If I ignore and push through with windows, it will install eventually. So far it hasn?�t BSOD in Windows yet. I can?�t run the RAM with the XMP settings at all. If I try it gets stuck in a BIOS restarting over and over. I tried some working memory from a socket 1700 CPU. But that refuses to work at all.

I can?�t see whats wrong with the build. All the CPU temps are all good . I?�m running onboard graphics I?�ve also tried removing all nonessential cables but nothing seems to help any ideas please thanks.

	Ive got some new different brand of RAM coming today. I will try that. But if that doesnt work, Im going to return the board as faulty as im not able to solve what the issue is with all these blue screens of death

	Whist waiting for the new RAM to arrive I?�m testing the old RAM in single channel mode and it seems to be working without issue. Managed to install Windows without any BSOD and no errors. So does this mean the board is faulty or a BIOS issue. I have the latest version. Any ideas? Thanks
