Windows 10: Help with Windows 10 installation after RAM “upgrade”

So, some detail for how I got here. I got two RAM sticks a few days ago, and added them to my MSI B450 motherboard. However, after that was done, I got blue screens galore, saying the windows couldn’t boot. So I went to the bios, changed ram speed (2400Mhz DDR4 from 2133) then updated boot sequence. It wouldn’t start right away, but then in troubleshoot, it asked where to boot from. I chose HDD as that was where it was, and it booted just fine. After a few hours tho, my pc force reset and that option was no longer available. Next thing I know, windows wouldn’t even boot saying there was no boot file. I made a USB boot on another computer with the Windows media creation tool, but even that isn’t working for me. I’m at a total loss. Was it that the sticks weren’t good? Not compatible? I would like to have all my components to work together.

Specs: Windows 10 Pro x64

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 6 core MB: MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon RAM: 2 x 8GB G.Skill Flare X DDR4 2400MHz *Attempted adding 2 x 8GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo DDR4 3000MHz GPU: MSI Radeon RX570 Armor MK2 8GB Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM HDD, Samsung 860 Evo 2.5” 500GB and 1TB SSDs (Yeah, two of them) PSU: Corsair RM550x ATX12V

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

 

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
