ASUS TUF gaming z690 D4 plus - problems two nvme and two windows

I have a setup that is less than 3 months old:
- ASUS TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS D4 DDR4 ATX RGB LGA1700
- INTEL CORE I5 13400 LGA1700 2.50 GHZ PROCESSOR
- SSD M.2 NVME 500GB KINGSTON NV2 PCIE 4.0 2100/3500 MB/S
- SSD M.2 NVME 250GB KINGSTON PCIE 4.0 X4 1300/3000 MB/S
- 2 x 16GB DDR4 3200MHZ KINGSTON
I don't need a video card at the moment, so I'm using the integrated graphics. My BIOS is version 2802.
I share the PC with my son (I work and he only uses it for games like Roblox and Minecraft), so his Windows is installed on the 500GB SSD and mine is installed on the 250GB SSD.
I left his as the primary boot, and when I go to use it, I press F8 and change it.
My SSD is on M2_1 and his on M2_3 (this has already been reversed).
The problem is that his Windows always reports disk errors or disk failures on the part of Win10, wanting to do disk recovery at the beginning of the boot. If I ignore or disable it, a few days later something in Windows fails, and I have to format it. Everything is fine on mine, I didn't notice anything unusual. I've left only his SSD, and everything works fine, it doesn't report errors, including the startup is 3 seconds faster. Only mine does the same.
So I ask, what's the problem here ASUS? Should I upgrade to 3701, since 3802 is bad?

Anyone able to help me here? support or moderation?

Hi @Rodrigo_cirilo please try disabling FAST BOOT and ASUS LOGO DISPLAY and see if your problem goes away. See my post https://rog-forum.asus.com/t5/gaming-motherboards/z790-dark-hero-bios-1302-logo-patch-bsod-with-mult... with a similar issue. 

I believe the ASUS UEFI Bootloader does not support dual Windows installation.

I hope this helps you resolve your issue. Good luck!

Hello, and thanks for answering.

So my problem was caused by Windows 10 installations removing the other NVME drive during installation, and later adding both and selecting which Windows I would boot using the F8 key.

Now I formatted both and installed both Win11 but WITHOUT disconnecting the drives, so one Windows was able to see the other and now when I turn it on I see a dual boot screen (something I didn't see before because I wanted different installations) now I select the Win I want to boot, through this screen, but I don't know who generates this screen, if it's the BIOS itself or Windows.

Even when I performed the installations removing the nvme's when I entered one Windows or the other (both were Win10) I saw both nvme drives C: and D:, with C: being the drive I had booted from and the other being where the other Windows was, when I booted through the other Win10, I also saw the drives, but inverted, this one became C: and the other became D:. Now that I installed without removing, when I enter one or the other Win11, s

It will be generated by Windows. Once you switch to the Windows you would like to start, are you seeing that the system restarts like you go back to BIOS and this time the Windows starts without asking the choice. However, if the Windows you are starting is the default you don't see this restart?

Are you still seeing corruption with Windows 11?

Como ninguem respondeu, volto aqui pra dizer que mudei para dual boot via windows e aparentemente resolveu o problema, nao vou atualizar a bios pois li muitos relatos de problemas com versões mais novas.
