Windows 10: Getting blue screen after changing cpu and mobo

Hi guys.

Recently I upgraded my cpu and mobo and everything went normal. Didn't need to reinstall Windows, drivers, etc. But a day or two after changing cpu and mobo I started to have issues when booting the pc for the first time everyday. So basically was stuck on booting and after 5/10 minutes I get a blue screen with the error "DRIVER POWER STATE FAILURE". After that I restart my pc and everything is normal. I tried every solution I could find. The question is: do I need to format my pc and if I do it will solve the problem? All my drivers are up to date and windows as well. Don't know what more can I do. Please help.

Thank you.

Changing my MOBO and CPU a

I'm doing PC upgrades and changes entirely for my new mini-itx build.

I'm not sure about how the process would work, but what are the appropriate steps I need to undertake before making my changes?

• My personal data and files are backed up to my Onedrive, and have nothing to lose in terms of data.
• I have an additional copy of Windows 10 (but would prefer not to use it in-case I do another PC build).
• My MOBO and CPU upgrades are polar opposites of my current hardware:
  • OLD HARDWARE
    • Intel i5 6500
    • AsRock Killer MOBO
  • New Hardware
    
  • • AMD Ryzen 7 2700x
    • Asus Strix X-470

This is my first time doing a particular change so guiding steps would be greatly appreciated! Things like how to wipe my hard-drive and reinstall Windows, etc.

You will have to buy windows license if you change the motherboard, unless you made the computer originally in the first place, or bought a license key.
