Hi,
First a brief history:
First a brief history:
- My old mobo gave up the ghost recently (died) so I bought a new mobo and CPU.
- ( Old: Asus Z170 Pro4 + i5 6600 -> New: MSI B450 Tomahawk Max + Ryzen 5 2600)
- Silly me, I was still running Windows 7 (which doesn't support Ryzen I'm told?) - my USB keyboard and mouse were recognised in the BIOS but NOT as soon as Windows loaded - I couldn't get past the login screen (and didn't have access to a PS/2 keyboard to bypass the USB ports).
- I had Windows 10 so I decided it was finally time to leave Win7 in the past and installed Windows 10.
- Did a clean Windows install (the installer didn't let me upgrade, gave me an error about how it couldn't upgrade from boot (and I couldn't upgrade from within Windows 7 itself, as I couldn't login) - anyway, as it should, the install completed and left the contents of my old Windows 7 installation in a 'Windows.old' folder on C:, but is otherwise a bare-bones installation.
