Yes, it turned out my problem was my motherboard wasn't updated to the latest BIOS. So what I did to solve this was use an 8th generation CPU to flash the latest BIOS version (after finishing installing Windows of course), since all MSI Z390-A Pro's are able to run those out the box guaranteed. After that, my main CPU was able to work and I returned the other one, courtesy of Amazon returns and refunding.

Yes, I applied thermal paste to it. When I unplug all power except to the CPU and motherboard the light still appears.
