Something interesting happened this morning. I started Eleet X1 (latest) to simply change the onboard argb color.
For some reason I hit the apply button even though I didn't have to.
 
The computer shutdown and restarted.
 
On every boot and restart after that I got the fatal WHEA-Logger error.
I tried switching cmos profiles. Even dug up some old archived profiles. Even restarted with optimized defaults. Nothing helped.
 
Finally, reapplied the v0.00 test bios and reloaded my profiles and I'm back to being WHEA-Logger free.
 
Eleet X1 is dangerous. I'm going to uninstall it since I don't normally use it.

I am constantly getting the Event 17, WHEA-Logger: 
A corrected hardware error has occurred.
Component: PCI Express Root Port
Error Source: Advanced Error Reporting (PCI Express)
 
On a recent RMA z590 FTW motherboard. 
Don't they test for this error before shipping out a replacement?
Is there a fix available?
 
This replacement feels like a downgrade :(

For those of us who have tried the test bios it seems to have corrected the problem.

This^. I've been running the test BIOS for weeks and haven't seen that error once.

Was this issue resolved for everyone via bios update? Currently having the same issue with my z690 dark and not sure if i should wait or RMA it.

Yes, user frankd3 in this thread reported that his whea errors were fixed by using the bios provided by EVGATech_LeeM.

True but that is for Z590 FTW.

Yeah, that test bios fixed it for my Z590 FTW as well. The Z590 Dark still has this issue and I've been refusing to update my bios on the Z690 classy in fear of this coming back.
 
It's for sure a bios related issue.
 
EVGATech_LeeM, any status on the Z590 Dark?

Also, EVGATech_LeeM, will there be formal issue of the bios that includes the test bios changes for the Z590 FTW?

 
Do you have a 2nd monitor? I think I recall reading somewhere about a 2nd monitor throwing some sort of WHEA errors, even though everything worked normally. It was a long time ago so I don't have any details sorry.
 
edit: sorry, I was responding to the previous page, seems this may not be an issue now, so ignore me.
