I have a Ryzen and it ran fine until one day, after some load, it wont run at all with the virtualisation options turned on anymore.

Having read all I can on the issue its largely been ignored by AMD.

If its some kind of thermal runaway issue that would not surprise me.

I had a bios reset itself to defaults before, and some AMD boards don't have all the required virtualization options on by default.

I only realized this happened because every time I had ever upgraded firmware, I always had to go back and set XMP settings, one or two other things, and than cpu virt option.

Same with secure boot for me. Kinda makes sense that a BIOS upgrade would wipe the config. Its that or manage schema migrations.
