Hello!
I'm in the process of setting up a new PC from scratch, with all new components. However, I've encountered two issues that I'd like to share with you to see if you can help me:

1. Every time I turn on the computer, there's no display on the monitor. Although it visually appears that all components are working correctly inside the case, I can't seem to get any image on the monitor. So far, the only solution I've found is to perform a Clear CMOS every time I turn on the computer, which is quite inconvenient but effective, as it allows the computer to start properly.

2. Every time Windows goes into sleep mode, upon waking it up, the computer undergoes a complete restart, as if it were starting from scratch. Additionally, it doesn't retain the state of any tasks that were in progress before the suspension. Everything in the operating system reappears as if it were a fresh Windows startup.

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions to resolve these issues. Below are the specs of my setup.
Thank you in advance!

From the hours I wasted with this problem here is what I would suggest. Remove all the ram sticks except one (make sure in the single correct ram slot). As Alan suggested remove the GPU hdmi cable from the GPU and use the onboard graphics connection. Then reset the BIOS with the shorting trick on the reset pins. This "should" allow you to get back into the BIOS and then you will need to downgrade the BIOS to the last one that is certified. Never use a "beta" BIOS unless you really enjoy being a tester for MSI for exactly the reasons you have now found. They often have issues yet to be resolved. MSI need to get their act in gear with their BIOS as I spent literally hours on this and even RMA'd the card only for the retailer to find no issue. It shouldn't be this hard and now I understand why so many just buy a Playstation or XBox. Make sure you turn off the power supply power first by the way.
