Nothing will boot.

Hey guys I'm having a few issues with my Windows. In particular no matter what drive I tell it to boot from weather it being a M.2 drive, ssd, or usb that all have windows on it (usb is a windows install drive). There was nothing wrong until a few days ago i changed nothing, I installed nothing, then it didn't boot, then it did. The spans between it booting and not booting getting bigger until now nothing will boot. I have tried everything on every forum that has a similar discussion, and i have just recently changed back to my old mobo and still the same story. The last thing i have tried is having only the ssd and usb plugged in, one stick of ram, no gpu and still nothing. Everything is up to date drivers wise. My pc specs are:
Intel 4771 i7
Asus z87 gryphon / asus rog maximus vii hero
Gtx 1080
Kensington ssd 120gb
Samsung 860 evo 120gb
Asus disk drive
Aywun elite gold 750 psu
24gb of ddr3 ripjaws 1600
Samsung 970 evo m.2
 


Can you get to the BIOS?

Yes that is the only thing I can get to. When I try to do a boot overide from the bios it tries but going to a black screen and you can see it trying to execute code with the white - showing up and flashing up and down then it returns to the bios.

That seems to rule out a dead PSU and you have changed almost everything except
- remove the SSD as well and see if it will boot from just the install USB
- try each of your RAM modules separately
(You could also try each one in each RAM socket but as you also used another mobo a socket problem seems unlikely).

I have done that prior

Final suggestion. Get into the BIOS and check the PSU voltages (probably under something like PC Health). If they are not all within spec or one drifts when left on for a while that could be the problem.
