Non-Stop Win.8 Install Problems

[A_RandomName]

Hello

Before I explain the issue, I would like to say that I've had this exact version of windows on this computer before without any issues. I decided to wipe my hard drive because I needed to speed up my computer, but now Windows is having problem after problem.

It begins with problems that occur even before installing, like not even being able to boot to the installer, which is on an 8GB SD card, the device I've used many times to install windows on other computers.
Other problems would arise during the installation itself, which was very annoying because the install process would only notify you of an error after you fully installed windows, which would then be uninstalled because of the error.
Finally, I would have problems after install, which would range from a black screen after login (more on that in a sec) and my computer not even wanting to start up at all. I tried all the methods I saw to fix the black screen, but nothing worked and eventually my computer wouldn't even boot so here I am, installing windows for the 12th time in the past 24 hours.

Any help is appreciated

I would suggest you begin by testing your ram and HDD first. It sounds like you have something else going wrong then just "windows"
Memtest86+ to test your ram. Run it several passes. I run it a good 6 hrs. It it passes several times then ram is probably good.

To test the HDD, download the utility from your HDD manufacturer.
Seatools (for dos unless you get windows running) for Seagate Drives.
WD Data LIfeguard for Dos for Western Digital Drives.
