As title says, I cannot install Windows on this machine.
It gets to about 10-12% on ‘Preparing files…’ stage of the installation and bluescreens.
I’ve checked the installation medium and had no issues installing windows on a different machine with the same medium, I’ve tested different memory kits and different drives in the problem PC.
I’m out of solutions as everything I look up tells me to ‘Go to here in windows’, which doesn’t really help me when I can’t even install windows.
Somebody told me it’s most likely related to CPU/Motherboard.
BIOS is flashed to the newest available version for this motherboard.
It worked fine last week but after a reboot, it wouldn’t boot into windows anymore and me being a dumbass decided to just use the EZ Erase utility in the BIOS to format the drive and reinstall windows rather than trying to boot into safemode.
What do I try next?
Any solutions, ideas or tips?
