    Why is Windows 10 not installing on my new build PC?


    Hello all!


    I built a new PC with my son for Xmas this year based on lots of youtube research.

    The build was relatively easy but installing Windows is proving to be very difficult.


    Firstly, as a longtime mac user, the only other windows machine I have is a dell xps laptop from 2005 or earlier which has half the keys missing!

    My wife has a work laptop running windows 10 so I downloaded the media creation tool onto an 8GB USB from that laptop.


    I bought a Window 10 Pro key from theunitysoft.com for £19.99 and tried to install using the serial key provided but that failed.


    I then bought a Windows Home license directly from Microsoft site for £120 and tried to install using the key provided but that failed too.


    I've updated the bios to the latest version motherboard is a Gigabyte B450M DS3H.


    I've deleted any partitions for a clean install.


    Does anybody have any ideas as to why I can't install this??


    My computer components are the following:


    Gigabyte B450M DS3H

    Ryzen 5

    ADATA 240GB SSD

    WESTERN DIGITAL WD50000AAKX

    2 x Patriot Viper 4 8GB Ram

    Graphics card: RADEON XFX RX 570 4GB
    Power supply: thermaltake smart RGB 500W


    Any advice welcome!

    :)

    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?
