Put In New Motherboard And CPU, Won't Load Windows
Feb 11, 2013
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 dont know if this is posted in the right area but I'm so desperate to get my laptop working its unreal. First it started off with my laptop crashing, I had totally forgot it needed to do a windows update and turned off my laptop in hopes that it would work properly. After that my laptop has not been working. The machine turns on and gives me two options. Start windows normally or do a repair. Upon starting windows normally, it loads so far before sending me back to the two options of start windows normally or repair. On the second time I clicked repair. My laptop then goes so far before presenting me with a blue screen that is usually the screen where my accounts are. The cursor still moves but it loads no further even after leaving it an hour. I decided to make a repair disk, hoping that the problem was because of windows. the disk loads, gives me a choice on the keyboard language then does nothing. I honestly have no idea what to do, I want to keep all the files safe on my computer as I havent backed them up and I have worked so hard on the projects.

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 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.

I want to upgrade my system to a New MotherBoard and Processor. I have the full Retail version of Windows 7 64Bit. Anyway two questions I have
1) Do I need to buy a new Windows 7 licence or will it Activate OK when I install the new MotherBoard

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 came across some article some time back talking about how windows 7 will manifest itself inside the motherboard particularly the newer ones with the UEFI bios such that you will be unable to upgrade the motherboard at a later date and that it will also block installations of other OS like linux for example. Not that i have had to replace a motherboard before but starting with my new build im getting soon I'd like to keep my options open. What truth is there to these claims and if they are true are there at least ways to get around it; and then how do these fail "features" apply when win7 is running as a virtual machine rather than the host OS?

I found a really good deal for a P8P67 Deluxe motherboard and was going to get an i5 2500k but I have heard that doing so will not be do-able with an OEM copy of windows 7. !?
I was also going to get an SSD and transfer windows 7 onto it, can I do either of these things with an OEM copy ? and how would I go about transferring it from my mechanical to an SSD

Motherboard: 680i SLI
I just got this motherboard, and when I try to load windows, it starts up, goes to the splash screen where the windows logo flies up, then it BSOD's and restarts. When I try and stick a disc in and load windows to re-install, it wont load the disc, it loads all the files, then unexcpected error 0ex0000255.
I move the harddrive to another computer with another motherboard, windows boots up fine. The motherboard in question has not had a bios update, and the current bios runs fine.

I have an Intel Motherboard which I am changing to a Gigabyte one.If I were to do this myself, I would take proper steps to insure that Windows will boot with the new hardware. I would update my Intel Sata controller driver to a Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller. Then, SHUTDOWN the computer (not restart), then install the new Motherboard and all should be fine. Windows should install the new drivers.The problem is, my computer is being serviced for free at the place I purchased it from. So I don't have access or communication with the lab. I'm sure they are professionals but I want to be sure they don't mess up my C drive or drivers. So I have a few choices:
1. Update the controller driver to Standard, turn off the computer and send it to the lab (maybe with a note, asking that they install the motherboard BEFORE they turn the computer on).
2. Trust them that they know what they are doing and hope they will first turn the computer on, uninstall the Intel controller driver, and then install the new motherboard.
