Q-CODE 16 on a new Maximus Z790 Hero

Hi, I build a new pc with the Maximus Z790 Hero, 2x64 Corsair DDR5 RAM (in the QVL List) , m.2 Samsung 990 Pro, a Corsair PSU AZ1600i with a i9 13900K.

Every time I try to boot for instal the OS I have code 16 and I need to reset to restart. When I can get the boot, I could go to the instal but if I need to restart for the update I get always code 16. After many of this reboot now I get a blu screen with the notes I can't load the OS.

It is the first time I have this issue with the ASUS motherboard, I have still a Maximus IX and a Maximus XII Extreme.

Could you give me some trick to make bootable my pc?

Yes, the seller give me the RMA for the repair or substitution. I send it back and wait.

Thank you for the answer.

Hi, I get a new ROG Maximus Z790 Hero and with the same hardware (PSU, CPU, SSD, M.2, RAM) I have start and boot and install Win11 and did all the upgrade without issue. At this point I believe it was the MOBO with problem and I send it back to my seller. 

I'm very happy to not have code error this time. The bios is 1303.
