Windows 10: NEW PC Build won't load USB Windows 10 installation, even after BIOS Settings changed

Hi all,


I have just finished an upgrade on my old PC rig with the following parts:


New MSI B450 Pro Motherboard

New 960GB SSD

New 550W Power Supply

New AMD Ryzen 5 2600

New 16GB RAM sticks.


The only old part of the PC is a year old ASUS GeForce GTX 1050 Graphics card which I am considering upgrading in the near future.


I have a USB flash drive with the latest Media for Windows 10 on it and have attempted to change the BIOS Boot order to lead with the USB flash drive. However it does not load the Windows 10 installation screen and just a black screen.


Another issue that happens a fair bit is I turn on the PC and it flickers to say the HDMI is working then goes black, unable to open BIOS even if I spam DELETE as soon as I start it up. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't and just goes into a black screen.


Any help would be very appreciated!

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?

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks
