Sorry but I'm confused. I managed to remove Norton, but I didn't even know I have a VPN service, can you tell me it's name so I can look for it? Also what do you mean by disabling easy tune? I searched how to do that but all I found was how to uninstall it, not disable. And I didn't find anything for how to disable msi afterburner scheduled tasks. Do you mean not letting it run on startup?

Sorry for the confusion, but if possible could you please give a more detailed description of the things I need to do, or maybe just link some videos? Also about the turn off xmp mode in bios step, I'm gonna try it soon. Thanks.
Your VPN network Adaptor is called Famatech Radmin
There is a service called Radmin VPN Control
And the programs lives in C:\Program Files (x86)\Radmin VPN\RvControlSvc.exe

You could uninstall the program from Programs & Features, or disable the service from Services.
To get to the first - click Start, and start typing Control, you'll see Control Panel under Best Match, click that, and go to Programs and Features.
To go to Services, click Start, on the keyboard type Services, under Best Match click Services, find the VPN entry, double click it, select Start Type and change to Disable.

For EasyTune, you can either uninstall while you are in Programs & Features, or again click Start, type in Sched and under Best Match, click Task Scheduler, right click on EasyTune and choose Disable. Same for MSI AfterBurner.
Same for whatever else in that list you want to stop running.
Personally, at this stage for testing, I'd turn them all off.
 
What about the CPU? I'm trying to remove the screws from the cooler but no luck so far.
Same there, only if you noticed the tempos were high.
Had you been looking at the tempos at all?

Also, no offence meant, but if you are a novice at tinkering with PC's, the CPU wouldn't be the first job I'd be recommending you tackle.
It can go pear shaped quickly (and expensively) if mucked around with.
So, by all means have a craic, it's a good place to learn, but know your own limitations.
There is a plethora of videos on the web as well that you can watch.

Ok then. It's probably not that anyway since the temperature isn't bad when I lose signal, I'm just trying to test everything. I'll do the things you said in one of your recent messages. Also I'm going to update the BIOS tomorrow.
 
Just to make sure, to update the bios I need to use a USB? If you have any tutorial recommendation or something like that it would be useful since I don't know how to update it. Thanks for the help so far.
Two ways to update your BIOS, yes, with a USB stick, or via the motherboards own software called @BIOS.
I'd recommend the later.
Go to the Gigabyte website, and download the latest BIOS update, link is https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B550-AORUS-ELITE-rev-10/support#support-dl-bios
While on the site, download the @BIOS software, link here https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B550-AORUS-ELITE-rev-10/support#support-dl-utility
Scroll down to @BIOS and click the download icon.

Once you have both of those, go to your Downloads folder, double click @BIOS and follow the prompts.
It should install that software, once installed, click Start and find it, click it to run it and following its prompts - basically it'll ask where is the file to use to update BIOS, tell it the Downloads folder and follow the bouncing ball.

Updating the BIOS comes with a very slight chance of making things worse, but only if you charge into it like a bull in a China shop.
So, take you time, follow the prompts, do any backups it says to do to cover yourself just in the off-chance.

In port #19 you say you lost signal when you were NOT gaming.
You don't want that to happen during this BIOS update.
So I would be doing this from Safe Mode, but first we need to know Safe Mode is reliable, so let's give that a practice run.
Read this Resource on what Safe Mode is and how to get into it.
 
I did all that, disabled and uninstalled the things you told me to, updated the BIOS version and checked if it was updated and I still lose signal when opening the game. I don't even have to play it anymore I just open it and it happens. I've uninstalled it once or twice to check if it would fix the problem and it didn't. I don't know what to do. Should I just get a better PSU? And how hard is replacing one anyway (I didn't build the PC I just picked the hardware parts, so I don't know how hard the process of putting the PSU is)?
