I just bought a whole new computer set up, and the only thing i kept from my old pc is the hard drive and peripherals. I put it all together and everything turns on just fine, but when i try to boot up with my hard drive, it flashes a blue screen saying that there is an error and restarts. I start up in safe mode and it starts Windows Repair, but as soon as it loads the repair window, my keyboard and mouse shut off. I put my hard drive back into my old pc and deleted a ton of drivers, and got half way through the deleting the usb drivers when all the usb drives stopped working, so i thought that might have worked. i plugged it back into my new pc and it still wouldn't work. So i disconnected the hard drive completely and tried booting off of the windows 7 install disk, but the same thing happens: as soon as it gets to the set up window, my keyboard and mouse shut off. Iv'e tried using different mice and keyboards, but all of them do the same thing. All of them work in the bios, but not when windows starts up. I would really appreciate some in depth help here, thanks.

Here's my set up:
-Motherboard: MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon
-Processor: AMD Ryzen 1700
-GPU: ASUS GTX 1060 6GB
-RAM: Corsair 16 GB (2X8GB) 3000mhz
-Power Supply: 750 watt
 
First step you could update the OS itself (even reinstalling the OS onto the hard drive), reinstall the drives onto the new PC and update them. The hard drive could be corrupted as well.

Its a new motherboard right?
 
Yes, also I got it to work with a PS/2 connection keyboard lying around. After a LOT of crashes and troubleshooting, it boots up just fine and I manually installed the network driver so it has wifi (though it is very laggy and crashes most of the time). Just 3 problems now. 1. It's still laggy (has gotten smoother with OS updates, and just a few more to go) 2. USB devices aren't discovered still 3. Software doesn't download or install, except for Windows updates (it says it is due to an "I/O device error") Looked this up and the I/O Error seems to be the root of the problem for possibly the USB issue as well. I've looked for ways to fix it online. My computer is running a "check and repair hard disk" now and has shown it's already fixed a ton of OS issues in the on screen log, but it still has a LONG way to go until it's finished (36785 out of 135664 files processed, and it's been 4 or 5 hours). So I won't know if it worked until then. If you guys have any other solutions or suggestions to the issue, it would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
