When I installed Fedora 40 (I think, it's 40), I couldn't get the usual
installation ISOs to work.  I had to use the server spin, I believe it
used a different bootloading method.  I installed a non-graphical
system, afterwards installing a graphical desktop.

Though the rest of your problems suggest it's the hardware.  You might
try replacing the CMOS battery.  If it's going flat various
motherboards go haywire.  Many don't alternatively power the chips from
its main power supply when the PC is running, the battery is always
supplying something.
