   X870 Steel Legend WiFi -

I have tested all of the following BIOS: 3.16, 3.26, 3.40 & 3.50. These all boot to Windows 10 but sometimes seem to get lost the first time doing so.

I have tested BIOS: 4.03 and 4.10 and NEITHER of these will boot to Windows no matter what settings that I use.

I am using the Ryzen 5 9600X, Samsung SSD, M.2, G.Skill approved 2x 16 GB DRAM F5-6000J3238F16GX2-FX5, Sapphire RX 480. All of the 3-series BIOS run fine at the default 4800 or Expo 6000 frequences. Neither 4.03 nor 4.10 BIOS will boot to Windows at either default or Expo settings, though they will boot to the BIOS set-up screen.

I have submitted 2x Tech Support Tickets over the past 3 weeks with confirmation that they have been received by Asrock Tech Support yet no response what so ever on the 4-series BIOS refusing to boot to Windows at least with my mobo serial # H9M0XB1098xx. 

My past Asrock support has always been good so it's unclear where the issue is.

	So when you power on the system it goes directly to the BIOS screen (UEFI)? Is your boot drive formatted to mbr or gpt? By what you describe it sounds like your OS is installed on an mbr formatted drive which would require CSM to be enabled in order for your system to boot. Windows 11 requires this setting to be disabled so recent BIOS versions have likely changed the default setting from enabled to disabled. The setting should be under your boot settings in your UEFI (BIOS). As for your support tickets, I suspect you may have submitted them during the Lunar New Year holiday period in Taiwan, this was a period from Feb 15 - Feb 23. During that time no one was working as it is a public holiday period in Taiwan and China. Once they come back from the holiday there is inevitably a backlog of support requests to go to. If I can't help you resolve the issue here I will contact someone from ASRock and let them know you have not gotten a reply yet.
