Windows 10: Boot issues

My PC is somewhat unreliable.
It is on latest W10 build 64 bit Version 1903 (build 18362.476)

When it starts up its fine and works OK .... no errors or issues.

Recently when I start it up ... it sometimes fails to start .... it's on an ASUS mobo ...
Sequence is typically

ASUS splash screen (with option to enter setup vis F2 etc)
Then I get screen with "RealTek PCI-E Gigayte boot agent loading"
Then ASUS splash screen again
Next ... on a good startup is windows icon and it then continues to login
On the problem startup
Either the windows icon does not arrive - just sits with blank screen
or Windows icon arrives but it never proceeds any further.

Once it has failed once - it can take many restarts before it will work ..... once it does successfully start - usually fine for next few starts.
Fast Boot is disabled
I tried using W10 recovery ...
Settings > Update & Security >Recovery > Advanced Startup >Startup Repair
It reboots .. I login ... get the "Diagnosing your PC" mesage.
Then I get "Startup could not repair your PC"
and then states it has created a logfile on F:\windows\system32\logfiles\srt\strtrails.txt
F:\ is a DVD drive? ... with no disk so why it should think it is putting file there is strange.

The file is actually on C:\

Any suggestions on any W10 repair steps without a reinstall?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
