Hey guys, my name is Dan and. Well id like some help.

I installed windows 10 becouse i wanted to play Halo 5 forge. But after some time, my games started acting up (not starting and fps issues)

I wanted my old OS back (Win 8.1) and me being an idiot and not researching how to properly reinstlall old Operating systrms. I just downloaded the ISO/Installer and i did the usual. But when it was installing at one point. The PC Just shut down.

I decided to start it back up i saw my normal starting screen (MSI MOTHERBOARD) but then it faded to black, then the text appeared "Restoring your previous version of Windows"

I thought this another part of the installation. Its been going like this for 8 Hours. I can cut the power as many times as i want. I cant get the recovery screen.

Please help, with detailed instructions (im kinda a noobie if it comes to software)

 
Solution
Boot off the Windows 8 media and start again see if that helps. You started the system clean anyway so does not matter if you just do it again.
