When I upgraded my pc by buying a new CPU, RAM and mobo, I was getting some BSODs. As this could’ve been caused by drivers, I tried using the driver verifier app to check if anything was causing problems. I followed the steps from this thread ( https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...behaving/f5cb4faf-556b-4b6d-95b3-c48669e4c983 ) and when it told me to reboot, my pc went into the Diagnosing your PC and Automatic Repair loop. Whenever it does this, it shows me my bios booting up screen twice and then the automatic repair loop.

Almost sounds like a ram issue. No way to know without checking. Could try downloading and running memtest 86 for a few hours to see if it shows about trouble.

If you have multiple sticks of ram installed, you may try with only 1 stick installed and see how it acts.

Do that. I've been a tech for about 11 years and have not used that app. In fact, Windows 10 when you do a fresh install, it's pretty good about picking up most drivers for you typically. But you will want to check for for motherboard chipset drivers and graphics card drivers also.

This computer’s starting to be really annoying. I’m sitting in front of the windows 10 installation setup. Firstly, it installed most of it and then was stuck on Updates for a few hours, so I restarted. Secondly, it BSOD’d after getting to the same point. Thirdly, it got that point and then suddenly brought me back to the “Install Now” button. The fourth time I tried it brought me back to the Install Now button.

Thank you so much! It managed to complete the installation and is now at the final stages. I’ll come back if any more issues arise.

I have windows running normally with one stick placed in, yet as soon as I try with using both sticks a plethora of issues arise; the PC either BSODs and/or apps crash regularly. I did memtest with both sticks and it came out fine. I tried checking the BIOS settings, which also turned out fine (both were at correct speeds and voltage).

Check the motherboard manual for the proper placement. Maybe sat bios back to default.

If it works ok, maybe check the xmp profile. Also, another test is you know the stick that worked well by itself. Remove the one that is known good, put the other in it's place and see if things work ok or start up again. If your system messes up then you know. If not, you might try just 1 stick and swap to different slots etc.

I will say memtest is good, but it seems like I've seen memtest mask things in the past unless only 1 stick was in.
