System:
Mobo: ASRock A320M-HDV
CPU: AMD A8 9600 3.4GHz
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 4GBx2 DDR4 2666Mhz
PSU: Corsair CX450

Issue:
Can't get an OS to install, or even run from a live USB.
The system begins to boot into the OS and shows the splashscreen, but then restarts in a loop.

Have tried with Windows 8 and 10, Ubuntu and Mint, as well as an Ubuntu Live USB (which causes the same problem)
With Ubuntu media can get to the install vs live CD option screen and navigate this normally

Will get to BIOS fine, and all hardware is detected normally
MemTest normal

Have tried already:
Swapping or completely removing all hard drives
Used 2 different USB sticks, both will work on other computers
Took HDD out of another computer and can't boot into an already installed version of windows

SATA is set to AHCI
Legacy boot tried both on and off
Fast boot is off
CPU temp never greater than 36

-----

I've run out of ideas.
The only thing that produces a different result is if I try to install Ubuntu Server form the UEFI interface, then I get a corrupted screen and no boot-loop

Any idea? Thanks everyone.

Solved!

Jumped the CMOS, then was able to update BIOS.

From there could run an Ubuntu Lives USB with the setting aipc-off and nomodeset

Once an OS was installed everything has worked normally
