    Blue Screen of Death caused by BIOS Administrator password?


    Hey, all.

    So, I was messing around in my BIOS (motherboard is ASUS B85M-E; BIOS is on the latest version - 3602) & I wanted to see what the User & Administrator passwords did because I was curious. I set up the Administrator password & exited the BIOS. Windows booted normally to the Lock Screen & a couple of seconds later it crashed. The BIOS has been flashed twice to the latest version with no issues (1st time: 3504 --> 3602; 2nd time: reflashed the same BIOS version - 3602). Flashing was done through the BIOS using a FAT32 USB Drive. I've never had any BIOS related issues (no POST issues, no boot issues...), so it's weird to me that the BIOS would cause a BSOD. My BIOS settings are:

    DRAM Frequency: DDR3-1600MHz (my RAM can run at this frequency & this is the maximum frequency the motherboard supports).
    Intel Virtualization Technology: Enabled (I use VMs, so I have to enable this feature in the BIOS).
    Fast Boot: Disabled (gives me more time to enter the BIOS).

    Everything else is set to the BIOS defaults.

    Windows version: Windows 10 Pro 20H2 x64
    Build: 19042.844

    :)
