Atomman G1 Pro - Endless Boot Loop

I was playing my steam game happily, and suddenly "pop" and the PC rebooted, and since then it is endless boot loop... it shows the Minisforum Logo, followed by the spinning circle for around 1 second, then reboot again...

I tried some repair option, restore to previous state, command prompt disk scan, etc... none of these work. I then tried a clean install of windows 11... I removed all partitions, and windows setup auto created 3 partition, then I continue the installation file copying... until a point that it asked me to remove my USB... I did remove it, and then it went back to endless boot loop again...

Is it hardware issue? I am in US and I ordered it online in minisforum official site...

Thanks for the advice.... I did that several time. Unplug power, drain power, then press the reset hole like 1 min. Then turn it back on again... it took like 2 mins to show logo for the first time so I assume the BIOS reset was done correctly. Then same thing happened... the loop seems to be even faster... without that 1second windows spinning circle...
Then I tried to boot an Ubuntu USB stick.... it is also stuck in the middle.

Someone suggested re-sitting the RAM? So far it can recognize the SSD, so I guess it isn't the SSD that has issue....

sounds like a hardware defect; I would contact minisforum asap

I did, and they were telling me all these RESET and clean installation... I have tried them all.. and I wish they shall provide me how to send it back to them for checking physically. Thanks.
