Troubleshooting • Boot Issues of a different sort - RPi 4B -tried all other listed solutions

Hi! I've got a Pi 4B and having major boot issues.I was using it as a pihole without issue until earlier this week wasn't working, so I tried to reboot it via powercycle and when plugging it in it's a good 5-15 minutes before anythign is displayed on the montior, when the monitor actually outputs (HDMI0) One of these three happens:
  • Perpetual loop on the main bootloader https://imgur.com/a/uPhiXJYscreen of just the eeprom info, which eventually displays this linux checklist https://imgur.com/a/JJd6kir, and finally a blue screen that says 'Generating SSH Keys' before restarting again. Sometimes you get the rainbow screen and raspberries sometimes you don't, i've also seen a 'watchdog did not stop' message. This goes on infinitely.
  • The raspberry pi desktop splash screen appears, you see boot progress (i.e. whatever services being loaded) and then it restarts. This goes on infinitely, it doesn't seem to restart on a specific service being loaded.
  • Once, after the splash screen appeared with a restart about 20 times, this appeared: https://imgur.com/a/hsFAb7v, but that's only happened once.
It seems like it's basically X amount of time into a boot before restarting, but the amount of time isn't constant. Red LED stays lit the whole time, so I don't think it's a power issue
I'm using an official power supply, I've restored the EEPROM (greenscreen and successful) I've tried 2 different USB drives, 3 different SD cards, from 16-256GB), all imaged from Raspberry Pi Imager on both a windows and a MacOSX device. I've tried the official latest release, Ubuntu, PiOS Lite 32 and 64 bits.

For all these, the screen stays mostly black the whole time, the device seems to reboot without any displayed error codes. I don't know how to enable more verbose logging, but when slow recording the screen i haven't seen any critical errors being throw.

So far I'm out of ideas, I tried restricting the memory to 2048 to see if it was maybe a bad ram issue but no dice.

Please help!

Thanks
