Windows 10: Windows 10 stuck in installation loop

Hello fellas,

I've been trying for the whole day to install Windows 10 on a brand new computer using a USB stick (with both Rufus and the official Microsoft tool) with those specs:



MSI X570-A Pro Motherboard

Ryzen 5 3600 CPU

G. Skill Ripjaws V 2x8GB (16GB, 3200MHz) RAM

Seasonic Focus GM-750 PSU

GTX 1060 6GB GPU

SanDisk SDSSDA-480G SSD



Everytime, the same thing happens. The installation completes, then it needs to reboot, but then upon reboot the installation restart all over again. I have tried to change the boot sequence, didn't do it. I tried reinstalling and removing the USB stick when it warns you that it's about to restart, didn't do it and instead it just loads straight into the BIOS, no error message nothing.



Made sure that the BIOS was set to UEFI and not CSM, disabled secure boot, reformated the disk, even tried a Windows repair, nothing worked. The funny thing is, if I used the USB stick and boot to CMD and roam in the disk where I installed Windows, I can see the folders full of Windows files, so definitely the actual installation works.



Also tried booting with only one stick of RAM and/or different channels, no luck.



My only other options for tomorrow: flash the BIOS, try a different USB stick (even though the Windows actually installs) and try to install another OS.



Any other thing I might be missing? Any tip or help that you could provide?



Thanks!

Windows 10 stuck in installation loop on tablet

Ok, I was THIS close for throwing this god damn tablet outside on the concrete... I have ACER Iconia W4 820 tablet and yesterday it decided it will refuse to boot (the Windows 10 magic). It just displayed boot screen with those dots running around forever. Literally. I left it over night and you guessed it, in the morning it was still doing it. So, I forced reset it and it brought up the repair dialog where I've opted for Reset and deleted all my data clean.

All nice and well, it installed and when I get the screen "Hi there" where I pick my languages and time zone, click next and select bunch of privacy settings and complete that, it restarts and goes back to god damn language and timezone selection screen, every single bloody time. I've completed it like 10 times and it just loops like a total retard. Wanted to re-install windows clean from USB, wouldn't even boot, tried recovering original OS (Win8.1), it just skips it and loops the same language/timezone menu and the backup USB that I've made on day 1 is just plain ignored. I now have a tablet that has less functionality than a kitchen cutting board. What the fuck Microsoft, are you kidding me? And no, I don't have any intention to pay ACER to fix this shit Microsoft created. Damn it.

I've googled tons of "fix guides" and they all seem to mention that rather recent stupid update that caused boot looping, but my case seems to be slightly different because it's installation looping. I only got 1 result that mentioned installation and deletion of some keys via regedit, but it didn't fix anything. So, any other ideas?
