Earlier today I switched out my old 6600k and z170 mobo for a 3700x and tuf x570 gaming. And like the idiot I am I forgot to remove the old drivers. Sometimes it will boot but then bsod after a few seconds to a few minutes after logging into windows and sometimes it just won't boot at all. The strange thing is that it's a different bsod error code almost every time.
I've tried taking out a RAM stick and moving them around (I have 2). But despite the system having the old drivers I think it is a hardware problem. After banging my head against the wall with this thing for a couple of hours I eventually decided to just do a clean reinstall of windows. I made a bootable usb drive, the system boots to the installation screen and then bsod. I have tried countless times, it won't work.
I figured that maybe the drivers are somehow interfering with the system so I removed my C: drive and tried to install windows on another drive, nothing's changed. I'm assuming that this is a cpu related issue so I'm going to rma it. Have I missed anything, or did I just get extremely unlucky?
