Started removing components and that somehow got it to boot to UEFI setup in a partially working state. twitter.com/DanielMicay/st It's pretty messed up and it seems like portions of the motherboard are not working anymore including 2 fan headers, USB headers and some other stuff.

One of my two workstations died. Good news is that it was the old Broadwell-E 6950X machine rather than my new Ryzen 9 5950X machine and the worn out NVMe SSD is still going strong so I haven't lost time needing to set everything up again. Still not a good situation right now.

Think it's possible that it would be capable of booting and working if I move the NVMe SSD back into it from the 2nd M.2 slot in my new workstation. I'm not really sure I want to risk sacrificing this Samsung 960 Pro 2TB even though it's pretty worn out and slow at this point.

The new workstation has a dramatically faster Samsung 980 Pro 2TB NVMe drive and I don't really want to reuse this worn out 960 Pro for anything so maybe I should put it back in and see if this thing can boot and function well enough to keep doing 1/3 of the development builds.
