macOS Monterey (12.7) keeps restarting after 3 or 2 minutes after boot.

Okay, so it has installed, but after it hits the gray screen which means the setup is starting up, it just restarts.
Maybe recheck your bios settings, all listed may not apply.
Also please tell us what make and model SSD you are trying to instal to. It may be incompatible

  1. XMP > Profile1 or default
  2. SATA > AHCI mode
  3. Secure Boot > Disabled
  4. Init Display > Pcie
  5. Serial/Parallel ports > Disabled
  6. Network Stack > Disabled
  7. Security > Disable or System
  8. Above 4G > Enable (disable resizable bar )
  9. Fast boot > Disabled
  10. Boot > Other Other

My SSD is an Inland 256 GB SATA SSD, and I also forgot to disable Fast Boot, so I just did.
 
Yeah, It's still not working, The setup started, and after I got to spoken and written languages, the setup froze, went to a gray screen, and just restarted.

Hmmm, try the attached. It worked great on a similar board I had, if it's still rebooting it could be hardware related as in possibly that SATA drive is bad but who knows.

EFI boots now, seeing if it'll actually work.
 
It seems to be freezing, let me see something.
