    Windows 10 won't install on new build


    BIOSTAR RACING Z490A-SILVER motherboard

    I cannot install Windows 10 on the new computer my Son and I built. I have no problem running UBUNTU, but Windows just won’t load. I have a retail installation USB key to load from and I’ve also tried downloading a fresh install from Microsoft and loading that from USB. The issues are too much to go into, but essentially, I cannot get a stable version of Windows to run. I have occasionally been able to get Windows to load into Safe Mode, and while there I am able to load some drivers that allow me to use the internet – either through the built in network outlet or through the wifi card that is specified below. Neither operates natively through the Bios.


    I have a decent level of computer confidence and experience though this is the first from scratch build I’ve been involved with. I have replaced most components on a PC but never all at once.


    I have spent 20-30 hours trying different variants in order to get Windows 10 to load, but so far no luck and I’m beginning to wonder if I ever will. I have unplugged “non-essential” hardware to no avail. taking out one stick of memory, the WiFi card, the second SSD, etc. I have flashed the BIOS to a newer version and then flashed it back. Nothing has helped.

    Is there a known fix for this problem? Is there a way to get install media with the latest version including dirvers? This install says it needs to install updates


    I don’t want to replace the motherboard and don’t really think that’s the problem since UBUNTU works flawlessly, but I need Windows 10.

    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?
