Here's what I've done so far:
I have done many clean installs including virtually mounting a Windows 11 ISO and 'reinstalled' Windows with 'kept files' option selected. I have also wiped partitions many times while doing a clean install to ultimately get a 'fresh install' of Windows.
I have replaced the CPU cooler.
I have replaced an SSD drive.
I have replaced the thermal paste on the GPU.
Windows is currently activated according to the OS.
I have all the latest chipset drivers from the MSI website installed for the CPU and motherboard, (from that link).
I have reset BIOS to factory settings but have kept XMP enabled, (personally I don't think it's a ram issue).
I have ran Windows memory diagnostic and memtest86 with passes.
I have ran Windows hardware diagnostic.
I have done a Windows image check as well as sfc with no integrity violations.
