I'm in the process of assembling my new computer. Everything in the BIOS is at default setting. Initially I only had the basic components connected in order to install Windows which are CPU, RAM and the nvme SSD on the front slot. The power button appears on when I press it, the CPU and chassis fan turned on and the monitor is hooked up to the board HDMI (also tried DP) port. The monitor did not get any signal from the computer. If I remove the nvme drive and install a SATA SSD instead then I would be able to get to the BIOS setting screen. Once I'm in this BIOS screen, if I try to plug the nvme back (have not tried the slot behind motherboard) the system would turn off.
At first I thought it might be a compatibility issue but MydigitalSSD told me the BPX nvme drive should work with Z270I motherboard. I have yet to hear back from Asus side.
So, am I missing something? Is there some setting that I need to adjust for the motherboard to accept the nvme drive?
