New CPU installed message after connecting a USB drive

I’ve got a Legion S7, Ryzen 5000, running Windows 11. Been using it for about 2+ years now. This error message pops up instantly when connecting an USB flash drive to it.

    Update the BIOS firmware to fix the issue.

    Do you have Bitlocker or encryption enabled? If not, just hit Y.

    BIOS/UEFI Glitch: Sometimes, the BIOS or UEFI firmware can display incorrect messages when hardware is connected or disconnected.
    USB Drive Failure: The USB drive might be failing or malfunctioning, causing the motherboard to misinterpret signals.
    There could be an issue with the motherboard itself that is triggered by the USB connection.

    My guess is that Windows updated the BIOS/firmware. The association to your connecting an old USB drive would be coincidental.
