X570 Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi Boot error loop

[boianski]

Hey all,

I am stuck in a loop between two errors when trying to boot.

1. VGA card is not supported by UEFI Driver.
2. When RAID config was built, ensure to set SATA Config to RAID mode

My specs are as follows:
X570 Crosshair VIII Hero WiFi (v3801)
5900X
32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR4 4000 (DOCP on Auto)
GIGABYTE WaterForce RTX 3080
Sabrent Rocket NVMe 4.0 1tb (OS)
Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1tb
800W Seasonic
Watercooled via EKWB components

I managed to update bios, install windows, but it became unstable after a few apps/games were installed and it would blue screen. Installed NVIDIA G-Force Drivers. Last thing was to clear the CMOS when powered off, right now the screen is on American Megatrends:

Please enter setup to recover BIOS Settings
When RAID config was built, ensure to set SATA Config to RAID mode
Press F1 to run SETUP

If I go to BIOS and load optimized settings, it would boot to "VGA card is not supported by UEFI Driver." I've tried toggling the CSM to Off and it would lead me back to "When RAID config was built, ensure to set SATA Config to RAID mode".

No idea how to get it to be stable and boot to Windows. Please help.

Did you install your motherboard and chipset drivers from here? https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog-crosshair/rog-crosshair-viii-hero-wi-fi-model/helpdesk_down...

I'm sure you already know this, but do that immediately after installing Windows. After that, install your GPU driver, and then run Windows updates until completion.

People often skip these early installation steps and end up with instability.

If you've already done all of that, try the previous BIOS version.
