Although I’ve been working with and building PCs since the early 2000’s, this is the first new motherboard, CPU, and RAM that I’ve bought since 2013 and some things have changed since then. So it’s quite possible that this is something stupid
🙂I just got a brand new (Links to exact products for detailed info if required):
AMD 5600x
Asus Prime x570-P (Came with latest bios, 4021)

At first I only enabled D.O.C.P and I was able to run and install windows with zero issues. When I started with my VM setups I saw that AMD virtualization was disabled. Simple enough fix, or so I thought…
If I have D.O.C.P and SVM enabled, the board won’t boot normally and will power cycle a couple of times and then show a message of booting in safe mode and forcing me to go into the bios config.
If I disable D.O.C.P then it will boot just fine with SVM enabled and this is how the system is currently running as I use some VMs for work and testing.
I spent about and hour on Monday night trying to see if I’m missing something in the bios settings, but I’m at a loss at this stage.
My PSU only has the 8 pin CPU power connector while the motherboard has the 8 pin and 4 pin ports. Could it be that I need power to the 4 pin as well? From what I read online it should be fine with just the 8 pin and a 5600x?
Maybe I need to setup a custom memory profile?
Any suggestions to what I can try?
