You need to be more descriptive of the problem, as well as your configuration if you expect to get some help.

Take a look at this: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/igfqje/help_rog_strix_z490e_a2_error/
Also post BIOS photo with your boot device(s).

After some research found the easy solution. Plugged keyboard in back of motherboard and not front case usb, which received the magical Asus Bios screen.

Thanks
