980 Pro WIndows 10 lock ups

Build New Computer 

Ryzen 7 5800X
ASUS ROG Strix B550-I
Samsung - 980 PRO 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M2
RAM G.Skill 32GB DDR4 Trident Z Royal Silver 3200Mhz
CORSAIR - RMx Series 850W PSU

Couple times a day windows 10 locks up but I can move mouse. Mouse clicks and keyboard do nothing. Have to press reset button and reboot. 

Event Viewer shows nothing for minutes preceding lock up. Which in itself make me think this is a disk problem. 

I am running the nvme on the PCI 4.0 slot.

Switch M.2 slots to see if it acts the same.

My 980 Pro 1TB runs fine in a Gen3 slot.

I tried this yesterday and so far so good

From what I've read nvme SSD's can have issues when lower power mode is enabled. 

This is my main desktop so I don't care about going into lower power mode. 

Under Advanced Power Options

Set to High Performance.

Change Plan Settings

Put computer to sleep Never

Turn Off DIsplay 30 Mins.

Advanced Power settings

Turn off Hard Disk after 60 Minutes

Sleep After Never

Hibernate After Never

USB  Settings

USB selective Suspend Setting

Disabled

PCI Express

Link State Power Management 

OFF

I think the Link State Power Management  might be the most important since we are on PCI Express BUS 4.0 X 4

Fingers crossed.

The BIOS in AMD rigs still does not recognize the 980 PRO but I have an MSI X570-A PRO and my SSD seems to be working fine.

I am using a clean install of Windows so fairly stable

Go to BIOS

Under Boot select CSM to use both UEFI &  Legacy. leave the rest  options as  UEFI only.
