Assuming not a branded PC did you update all drivers from that mobo maker?
Have you run the sfc/dism process?

Dear Dave Bowles,
Welcome to Microsoft Community.
According to your description, I believe there is something wrong with your NUC's system?
Here are my solutions about this problem:
Solution 1: start the nuc in safe mode.
- Press Windows logo key + I on your keyboard to open Settings. If that doesn't work, select the Start button, then select Settings.
- Select Update & Security > Recovery.
- Under Advanced startup, select Restart now. After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
- After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 4 or press F4 to start your PC in Safe Mode. Or if you'll need to use the internet, select 5 or press F5 for Safe Mode with Networking.
Solution 2: reset this computer.
Press Win+I -> Update & Security -> Recovery -> Reset this PC.

If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Intel Nuc i7-1165G7 Will Not Restart From Windows Power Menu
Intel NUC is unable to work
Did W10's safe mode do something to fix its very slow boot up during normal boot?
Video Issue on NUC
Videos
So I bought this NUC7 from eBay and I’ve been unable to get it to boot from usb drive or anything. I installed new ram and SSD. Before it kept saying “ unable to boot from disc” then I managed to see this screen.
Again this was purchased on eBay. Is this fixable?
Sorry in advance for the long post - I don't think the NUC can be fixed, just looking to hear what others think the issue is.
I have a NUC8i3BEK which I was using as a headless remote access Windows 11 PRO workstation.
It was configured to auto-start on power fail, which happens from time to time, and is connected to a surge suppressor.
One day I couldn't remote in, so went to visit the NUC and power-cycled it, which usually fixes any issues. Still could not remote in, but the power light was on. Connected a monitor to the NUC and...nothing - monitor acted like nothing was connected. So, I power cycled again, saw the INTEL NUC startup screen, the spinning Windows wheel, then the monitor went into sleep mode, like the video was disconnected. I tried to remote in again, and nothing, so I was pretty sure it wasn't just a video output issue where the NUC was actually running but had no video out. Power light on the NUC stays on the entire time.
I then I tried the following:
- Boot into Safe Mode, which worked. Tried to RESET the computer, thinking maybe a corrupted driver or something. On reinstall of Windows 11, reached the SELECT A KEYBOARD LAYOUT and the monitor went to sleep again (using a different monitor this time).
- Figured maybe a bad SSD, so replaced the SSD and tried to install Windows 11 again, via USB this time. Same issue, though at the point where I'm creating a user account during setup.
- Figured maybe bad RAM, so replaced the RAM and tried to install Windows 11 again. Same issue, around the same point.
- Maybe a BIOS issue? I am able to boot into the BIOS with no issues, so applied the latest BIOS without any problems. All BIOS settings look normal, fans, etc. Also reset BIOS to DEFAULT settings. Still cannot boot into Windows 11.
- Maybe a Windows 11 issue? Created a Windows 10 To Go USB drive and tried to boot into that. Same issue. Monitor goes to sleep after spinning Windows wheel.
- Maybe Windows issue? Created a bootable USB Ubuntu drive. Monitor goes to sleep right before the desktop appears. HOWEVER, similar to Windows Safe Mode, I CAN boot into Ubuntu SAFE GRAPHICS MODE with no issues. Runs 1080p and everything looks OK.
As I mentioned, at this point, I figure it's a lost cause and will take out the SSD and RAM and toss the NUC, but I'm curious if anyone has any idea what the issue is.
My best guess is that during a power outage something in the video chip went physically bad - maybe bad video RAM?
Thanks for reading, if you made it this far.
The culprit: SSL 2+ thunderbolt audio interface.
everything was going fine until i started playing with ssl 2+ and asio and the latency settings. windows froze hard and after i finally got all the programs closed, i attemted to shut down windows.... and it just would not. stalled in spin mode for several several minutes.
i was forced to hard shut down via the power button.
now windows will not start up. i get this message...."bios has detected unsuccessful POST attempts. possible causes include recent changes to bios performance options or recent hardware change. press Y to enter setup or N to cancel and attempt to boot with previous settings."
i tried loading defaults from setup. that didnt work.
I turned off thunderbolt and audio settings via Setup. Even though nothing changed when I tried to booth after unplugging the audio interface. that also didn't work.
Please help me.
This is probably a Windows support issue more than a Hades Canyon issue. I'd suggest starting windows in safe-mode, or whatever they have these days for system recovery. Even booting off a USB thumb drive to run system repairs. The most probable reason this happened is the SSL had DMA access to you computer, and did something it should not have done. That is the potential risks when using thunderbolt devices. For context, In Linux we have been very paranoid about this issue, trying to firewall TB3 peripherals, even virtualizing them where possible. Good luck friend.
unplug the power and hit the power bottom like five times and plug it back again, if this doesn't work, open the nuc and unplug again them disconnect the battery hit couples times the power bottom connect the battery and done, just try.
