    I figured out why Windows wouldn't boot. Before I did the restart that broke things, I installed ExamShield to take a proctored cert test for ITIL. That's what kept me from booting Windows. After I installed the replacement fan, Windows still wouldn't boot so I created a Windows Repair on a...

    Error Code 62

    I just started up my new build, and I am getting error code 62 which means "installation of PCH runtime services." The only things I upgraded was my CPU up to an i7 7700k, my RAM to DDR4, and my MOBO to Asus Maximus Hero IX. Everything else is the same. Why would this error code be showing up?
