    Thanks for your response.

    The 8700G is a very new CPU (Zen 4 / AM5 APU). Your MSI B650 board may need the latest BIOS updates for full compatibility.

    Go to MSI’s site and install latest BIOS update to your PC and see if it resolves.

    Hello, I have already uncheck fast start-up, i have also checked the PSU, but I'm not so sure the PSU is the Issue here, at least it doesn't seem to be the issue.

    Hello ,

    I’m here to help you in resolving your issue

    Event ID 41 Kernel-Power issues indicate that your system has unexpectedly shut down or restarted, and it’s often related to power, hardware, or driver-related issues.

    Even though you have a Corsair 750W PSU, make sure it's not malfunctioning. Power supply issues are a common cause of Event ID 41 errors.

    Ensure that all cables, especially the ones connected to the motherboard, CPU, and GPU (even if integrated), are secure and not loose.

    If you’ve added any new hardware, consider whether the PSU might be struggling under load, especially since you're using a high-end CPU and 32GB of DDR5 RAM.

    Fast Startup can sometimes cause power-related issues, particularly with Event ID 41. Disable it by following these steps:

    1. Go to Control Panel > Power Options.
    2. Click on Choose what the power buttons do.
    3. Click on Change settings that are currently unavailable.
    4. Uncheck Turn on fast startup (recommended).
    5. Save changes.

    After trying above steps, please reach out to me if you have any doubts or issues
