Windows 10: Windows 10 USB install restart loop

I have built many computers over the years but this is the first using an SSD as my primary hard drive. BIOS loads up fine and it lets me access the USB installation of Windows but as soon as it starts installing it will just reboot for no reason. It stayed on once almost until it was complete but then would reboot and then say Windows did not install right. I have troubleshooted as far as I know how and have been through many forums but have not been able to find a solution. Question is, could the drive be bad? That's my last thought unless there is a compatibility issue somewhere.


Hard drive: MSi MPG Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon AC

RAM: 16GB 3200MGh Corsair Vengeance

SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 1Tb

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

 

Is it time for Windows 10 already?

Here's a good step by step guide on doing a fresh install.
