I installed the 1.29 bios on DARK the day it was released and no problem for me !!!!!!!!!

When your System is Power off, unplug the Cable from back of the Power Supply to see Mobo Lights are staying on...

RSHTECH USB 3.0 POWERED HUB was causing this issue!!! after I unplugged it from Outlet MOBO behaves normal as it should.

Guys, I am having trouble with FTWk v1.29
I've received the MB with an old bios version and it did not work with i9-10940x so I've used a 7900x and updated the bios to 1.29.
Everything seemed fine until the PC died out of nowhere. Now sometimes it starts and sometimes it does not.
When I am lucky, I turn on the PC and in 10s or so it shuts down and after 2s it turns back up and boots Ok. After some time using, the PC dies again.
I've switched the power supply from a 750W one to a 850W and it still does the same thing. I've switched the RTX3090 for a GTX 1080ti with the same behavior.
Could it be a bios bug? Please be a bios bug so that I can just update/downgrade it and do not have to take it to the store.

You can try to reflash the BIOS, make sure to loads Default before and after. Or you can Flip the BIOS Switch while you are in the BIOS then try to Update the BIOS.

Flip the BIOS Switch while you are in the BIOS then try to Update the BIOS.

How safe is that? Do I have a chance of bricking or rendering the motherboard not usable?

I believe something is shorting your Mobo. Take it out of the Case and turn it on with minimal Components are attach to it like Graphics Card, one Stick of Memory, Keyboard and Mouse......

Ok, I will try and report back. Thanks a lot

Are you sure your CPU isn't overheating?  If you swapped CPUs in order to update the BIOS, is it possible your CPU cooler wasn't mounted properly?
