New Motherboard/CPU Can't Install Windows 7?
Jan 14, 2012
I have quite a few hard drives but for the time being I have unplugged all of them and I am just trying to install windows on my 120GB OCZ Vertex 3 SSDI am booting windows 7 off of my flash drive which has worked on pretty much all my other Windows installs.I am able to get into the Windows 7 setup however right after clicking Install Now I get a screen saying "Select Driver to be installed" Which has a pop up screen headed "Load Driver" and then information about needing a CD/DVD with the correct driver information on it.I have tried using the CD that came with the Mobo. But nothing even if I got the list to populate with a choice after clicking on it and choosing next I would get an error that it can't be installedI have tried booting in IDE, ACHI, and RAID. All modes I get the same problem. The PC is finding the HDD because it is in the BIOS and I can even boot from it, but since it has an old Windows 7 install it just ends up rebootingI have also noticed that in the BIOS there was an option to turn off various storage controllers. I tried disabling them to leave just the Intel RAID controller. Yet still I get the same problems.

I started everything up and entered my new OS disk,thenit says 'loading operating system...' for not even a second then goes on to say'system boot failure, insert system disk and press enter' I re enter the disk but then it says 'disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter'. I don't know what to do, I've gone into BIOS and but the cdrom as the first boot device also but nothing seems to work.. everything is brand new and my motherboard is GA-970A-UD3 AMD type

I'm currently going through my first motherboard upgrade and I have a few questions. First, will a new motherboard/CPU upgrade do anything to my harddrive? Second, is a clean Windows 7 install via USB install method recommended?

I am doing a motherboard upgrade for a friend. I need to know how I can move his hard drive with his current OS instal to the new motherboard without having to do a fresh Windows 7 install. He has too much that cannot be replaced. Is there a way to do this?

I would like to upgrade my very old Conroe 1333-D667 motherboard currently fitted with a Pentium 4 3gig processor & Win 7 Ultimate. Could I have some suggestions as to what would be a reasonable new mobo upgrade with maybe something like an Intel (what type) dual core processor or suggested alternatives - I need the whole system to be a bit quicker. Most importantly though without having to re-install Win 7 in the process. I would probably have to stay with 32bit as this is what everything is now.The new board must have at least 1 IDE for my Plextor PX-870A DVD and at least 4 sata connections. There is so much stuff out there which makes the choice confusing.

When I first assembled my pc I installed my drivers from the motherboard disc. Now I want to update them to the latest version. How does this work? Do I just install over the old ones or do I have to uninstall. Also in the dowloads page of my motherboard I see.
Intel(R) Management Engine Interface V8.1.10.1275 for Windows XP/Vista/7/8 32bit & 64bit.(WHQL), my version is V7.1.21.1124, should I update this as well.

I got a new motherboard and processor today and whenever I boot up the pc I have to go into safe mode because if I boot as normal it will stay on the windows welcome screen with the rotating loading circle and will stay there. But when I boot in safe mode I cannot access my driver cd, it tells me to reinstall the program or something. So basically i'm stuck in a loop.

I'm RMAing my current motherboard (Asrock P55 Pro) and CPU (i5 760) and am planning on purchasing an AM3 motherboard with a Phenom II x4 965.
Would I need to get a new Windows 7 Disk if I bought the OEM version before?

I have a Gateway FX6801-05 which originally had Wiindows Vista installed. I purchased a complete Windows 7 ultimate (not upgrade, not OEM) from eBay. I wiped the disk then installed and verified it without a hitch. Automatic updates has been working fine.Yesterday I changed some things around on my motherboard. When I booted Windows 7 Ultimate, which has been installed on my computer for several years now, it reported that my copy of Windows was invalid. Apparently the motherboard remembered the OEM Vista product number. I tried reauthorization both on the web and by phone using my new product key of Windows 7. The phone reauthorization doesn't even allow me to talk with a support person.Did I really buy an unauthorized Windows 7 ultimate, or is something weird going on here because VISTA OEM was originally installed on this computer?

I recently built my new computer with a friend, and I used the Hard drive and Graphics card from my old one, which had windows Vista. When we finally finished, I popped in my Windows 7 disc and selected upgrade. It tells me that I need to restart my computer normally and run it from there, but the problem is that I can't! I also don't have a Vista disc, so I can't repair my vista install, and I don't even know where to find Vista disc anymore.My only other option would be to install windows 7 but that would wipe my hard drive, and I haven't backed anything up.

Recently my computer has been going haywire on a game and only does so for that certain game. Below is exactly what happens every so often and when I went to the game's support I had been told to update my drivers, using the Live Update 5 that you can DL for MSI computers, and below is also a screen shot of what the screen says and when I attempt to download one of them it will say download fail, would it be best to update the MB driver to see if it fixes the problem with the game? and if so, how would I go about finding and downloading them since Live update 5 will not work?

I am having a heck of a time with my new hardware. I finally got my new motherboard and CPU installed. I'm afraid I don't have the info in front of me, but I believe the motherboard is an MSI Military Grade III or something like that, and the CPU I wanna say is an A10 5800k or something like that. It's a quad-core, 3.88GHz.
Before I changed everything out, everything worked fine. I obviously knew that it wasn't going to just work right away. But this is a little ridiculous. After a while of troubleshooting, I have figured out that it keeps getting stuck on trying to load the old video card driver, doesn't find it, craps itself, and then restarts. I have a CD with all the new drivers on it, but I can't get into any form of Windows to actually install it. All of the boot menu options do the same thing. Unlike every single previous version of Windows that have an option to do a basic VGA driver boot, all of the options in this menu appear to use the driver that you have installed. So apparently, if your video driver is bad, you are boned.
It really shouldn't just be constantly rebooting like this. When I get a chance, I'm going to try and put in the old card and see if it will recognize it, because I just now thought of that as of this typing and it would definitely be worth a try..

I am going to be upgrading my motherboard, along with the processor and memory, with an existing Windows 7 installation. I always expect things to go horribly wrong, of course, so I have backed up as needed. Still, I would really rather do a successful upgrade of the OS rather than a clean install.I know with XP you can just do a repair install before letting the OS boot with the new hardware, but I have never upgraded this way with Vista, and I expect 7 is similar to Vista. I saw that it may help my chances to delete the current IDE controllers before the change ( MSFN Forums > New Motherboard upgrade with Vista ). Does that mean I just delete the relevant drivers in Device Manager? I'm not clear about exactly which drivers this entails in Device Manager. And the following link is for XP, but I'm wondering how relevant it would be on Vista or Windows 7: How to replace the motherboard on a computer that is running Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000 The new motherboard should be fairly similar otherwise, it would be updating from an AMD SB600 south bridge to an SB700, but it's staying with an AMD brand chip etc.
