  1. Windows installation


    Hi,

    I recently got a new SSD and wanted to reinstall windows on to that for better performance over my HDD. I was doing the installation with a USB stick and without the HDD connected but it went into an installation loop. After that, I wiped it and tried taking the USB out when it restarted, it then came up with the problem "reboot and select a proper boot device". I'm not sure what to do and was wondering if anyone else had this problem.



    Solutions I have tried:

    1 reinstalling boot media on USB

    2 complete shut down and try again

    3 burning the installation media onto USB with Rufus

    4 disconnecting and reconnecting SSD


    System:


    Ryzen 5 3600x

    Asus prime b450-plus

    16 GB DDR4 RAM

    NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER

    1TB TOSHIBA HDD the drive that already has windows on

    500GB Samsung 860 evo SSD for new installation of windows


    Any ideas???

    :)

  3. Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    +1

    If you having an issue installing a driver that worked before you formatted or wont install on a fresh build, sometimes this means hardware damage
