Question upgraded my motherboard, and CPU, and now my system will not stop booting into the bios

[Jordan Kinney]

I recently upgraded my motherboard and CPU, and now it won’t stop booting straight to the bios no matter what I do I’ve tried to clean, install windows from a flash drive, and it won’t install windows. I’ve tried unplugging all of my storage devices aside from my thumb drive with Windows 10 on it as well as trying to install with all of my drives connected and the boot drive and it still won’t install windows

My motherboard is a MSI B760 gaming
My new CPU is a 12th GEN I think I need Core i5-12 600 KF
My ram is two sticks of eight gigs of corsair vengeance DDR five at 5200 MHz

I can send photos of my bios and what’s going on whenever I try to boot from my flash drive, although I’m new at this and not sure how to do that, please help as I’m quite desperate to get this up and running today or as soon as possible because I need it for work.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

I’ve tried to clean, install windows from a flash drive, and it won’t install windows.
Where did you source the installer for the OS?

I’ve tried unplugging all of my storage devices aside from my thumb drive with Windows 10 on it as well as trying to install with all of my drives connected and the boot drive and it still won’t install windows
You merely have the drive you intend to install the OS on, on your platform, all else drives can be removed/disconnected.

How are you cooling the processor? BIOS version for your motherboard? Did you try breadboarding the system?

Better yet, please pass on the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

"won't install Windows", do you mean that it boots into the installer, but fails to install?... or that it doesn't even boot into the installer?

"won't install Windows", do you mean that it boots into the installer, but fails to install?... or that it doesn't even boot into the installer?

Yes it will let me attempt to install but when it comes to the point of choosing my drive to install onto it doesn’t let me select any of them, and it says something about unable to use these due to partitions or something like that… otherwise, whenever I turn it on, it just goes straight into the bios

could you attach a screenshot of that message please? (use imgur.com and put the link here)
it might be an issue with the drive.

I have photos of what’s it’s doing but I’m not sure how to post photos here or if I even can

It sounds like your boot drive is not being recognized by the BIOS. To install windows you need to have a working drive or you will get an error like the one you have been getting.

Sorry for the quantity, I’m wondering if I should just download win 10 or 11 on a brand new drive, un hooks all current ones and try to see if that works? Or just end up taking it somewhere have have them deal with

The thing is is I’ve done this before years ago I’ve replaced a motherboard and CPU and had absolutely no problems with it booting right back into windows without having to mess with anything in the bios or anything
