Been awhile, busy with life until my PC started acting up badly, wondering the resident tech gurus can help.
I'm using MSI B450M with Ryzen 3700X, and just bought last week LG 29WK600 to replace my LG 25UM58P. I'm very up to date with drivers and BIOS on my system, and for a week now I've been getting cold boot problem(s).
I've read on MSI forum that there's a cold boot issue with the latest BIOS, but mine goes much farther than just BIOS update. So here's my issue:
One thing I noticed from upgrading the BIOS, especially the one that supports Ryzen 3000 (the one that starts stripping the BIOS) was that whenever I boot up my PC, my GPU (Zotac RTX 2080) spins at max speed before throttling down. It never does that before the BIOS update.
It's a bit hard to pinpoint when the cold boot becomes a problem, but it's around I changed my monitor and the latest abba BIOS update several days ago. After succesfully booting into windows tho, all runs smooth, gaming, productivity, everything. Several posters on MSI forums stated that changing their power supply solves the problem... I don't know, my Corsair RM650X is just 3 years old, and even though my specs are quite beefy, I run power saver scheme like 90% of the time.

- Can't even enter BIOS. I noticed on the onboard EZ Debug LED, it's stuck on VGA, not on memory nor CPU. I've never encountered VGA related issue.
- Whenever there's a cold boot AND I let my PC on for 5-10 minutes, it will finally boots to Windows 10, but my E Drive (adata su750) is disconnected.
- To solve the cold boot issue, I have to restart my PC several times.
- My monitor setup is dual monitor with LG29WK and LG22MP, one with DP and with one HDMI. I will never have a cold boot issue when unplugging the DP cable. However, if I unplugged it and plugged it in after, there's a blank display issue.
