Hello, I'm having issues with my motherboard, and here's my incident in detail:
I was using my computer as usual, went out to do some errands, and when I returned, my Windows was completely frozen. I performed a hard reset, but it didn't boot up again. The motherboard's VGA LED was lit in white, and nothing else happened.
After several reboots, I managed to access the BIOS, which had graphical errors (red spots all over the screen). I exited the BIOS, and it indicated that my Windows files were corrupt. Upon attempting to restart, it didn't even boot into Windows.
Things I tried:

Things I tried:
- I attempted to reset the CMOS. After doing this, the graphical error disappeared briefly, but it returned when I moved the mouse, and I couldn't boot into Windows again.
- I also tried updating the BIOS, and the same happened: the error disappeared briefly but returned.
- I visually inspected the components but didn't find anything unusual.
- I tried booting from a USB drive with Ventoy, Hiren's Boot CD, and the Windows installer. I reached the Ventoy boot screen without issues, but none of the ISOs would load.
My components:
- ASUS ROG Strix B450-F Gaming Motherboard
- AMD Ryzen 3400G CPU
- HyperX Fury 8GB 2666MHz RAM x2
- MSI Nvidia 1660 Super 6GB Graphics Card
- Sentey SDP650-FX 650W Solid Power 80 Plus Power Supply
