Updated X470 Pro Carbon to 29M beta bios, installed 3700x, it posted OK and recognized the chip and all the attached hardware (including M.2 NVME boot drive)...
...however, for whatever reason, windows will not fully boot to NVME. I've tried every combo of settings for UEFI and CSM, enabled and disabled various other features to see if it would affect ability to read disk, but whenever Windows boots, its just an endless spinning wheel (or every 3rd boot attempt, "automatic repair mode")
It WILL (strangely?) boot into safe mode. But very unstable; opening various files in safe mode causes insta-crash.
Not sure what the issue is, whether its the BIOS or the Chip or what.
Is it something to do w/ RAID being disabled on the beta BIOS? (i know 1 NVME doesn't need to be set as RAID to boot, but i've seen discussions in past which suggested RAID capability was needed to run NVME as UEFI boot device)
Any thoughts? In the meantime I'm moving back to old v. 28 BIOS and 2600 chip until new, stable BIOS is released, but am interested in any comments re: NVME boot issues b/c im pretty new to using them and suspect this may involve some user error.
Thanks
