    After having the Vsod fixed, ive been experimenting some issues with my laptop when it comes to the start up. When I use my computer during the day, I experiment no booting problems at all. Right now, since ive been using it for 20-30 mins, i could reboot it or shut down/turn on without encoutering any difficulties. However, when my computer is shut down for a longer period of time, I get the following problems : The system starts up, loads the ASUS screen, then shuts down. And it will reset like this 3-4 times before actually booting. Ive been experimenting this problem only since ASUS rma have updated my BIOS to fix my VSOD issues.

    I use usb devices plugged in and I dont know if is related but it feels like unplugging them all helps the computer booting for some reason.

    My guesses:
    1. my laptop froze so many times from vsods I had to hard reset wich ended up corrupting a booting file in some way.

    2. Motherboard got damaged from RMA. / capacitators issue?

    3. Hard drive damaged.

    4. New BIOS causing issues? unproper install?

    Also, I get the "insert proper booting device" message on booting sometimes. Restarting the computer bypasses the process. It's just annoying and random.

    Thanks for suggestions and help! :)
