Hey, just wondering if others are getting it where your Z490 Dark will prompt you at boot about hardware changes that haven't happened? Its never the same thing but i'll attach a few screens of examples.
 
Just before posting this I did disable fast boot to see if that has something to do with this, but was wondering if anyone else ran into this too.

    I have the same issue, for me it lists CPU, RAM, SATA and both M.2 NVMe's.

    Is your cmos battery weak? Do you notice this issue on older and newer bios versions?

    Brand new board. Has disappeared after I disabled fast boot.
     
    Running the latest, unless something is newer the 1.09.

    I run into this every now and again with mine too. Says RAM and M.2 were changed, which definitely didn't happen.

    Since disabling fast boot it has disappeared all together. So, I just left it disabled. Didn't seem like having it on was saving any time any way.

    Even without fast boost enabled, i still get the message "RAM and M.2 were changed" from time to time. I mean, i couldn't care less because i just press ESC and everything is fine, but it's still annoying and i wanna know what causes that problem

    Try resetting the BIOs and then manually inputting any values you had previously. If the issue continues contact EVGA Tech Support.
