New setup not starting

[leosg102010]

Hello everyone.

I just got these 3 items today:
Motherboard - h110m Pro-Vhl
Processor - i5 7400
And a new 8gb RAM stick
(they're all new)

Thing is:

The computer doesn't start, I can see MSI screen (from mobo) and right after that the "Windows Starting" shows up, but the screen freezes for half a second and procceds to blue screen, then the computer restarts and a screen where i can start Windows again shows up.

I was thinking it might be the processor maybe? There's a chance i fuc** up when installing it, but the question is:

Would the computer initiate and show me Windows starting if the CPU was damaged or not working?

Too much edits because typing on phone is hard.

Are you using an old hdd with windows on it? Try a fresh install of win 10

Since you indicate there might be a problem with the CPU installation, I'd start by redoing that. It might fire up briefly, that's totally dependent on what the issue is. It doesn't take much to get the bios up.

I cant install win 10 right now, I removed the Hard Disk (it is old but it was working like 10 hours ago) and I can now access the bio, before removing HD it was just freezing and restarting.

Also, I get red led lights on mobo when I click power, leds turn on for CPU and DRAM, one after the other for 0.5s and then VGA red led stays on.

I will try installing win 10 tomorrow when I get back from work.

Is there something else I could do for now?

(I tried everything else other than the win 10 install btw)

norcalsc pinned it.fresh install is your option.

I just tried installing win10 but when Windows restarts the computer to finish the installation It starts all over again

Sorry for the late reply, I've been busy lately

Edit: Ok, somehow it's working now, I had a really weird glitch during the installation though, the Motherboard startup screen was "above" Windows loading screen the entire time.

Thanks for helping by the way!!
