I'm not sure which category does this belong in but anyways.
Hello guys, so few weeks ago I "successfully" built my first pc. I can get into BIOS no problem but when I try to boot windows from my usb drive this: View: https://imgur.com/a/UQeVnZU
happens.

I tried two different usb drives and two GPUs but still the same result. Does anybody have an idea of what might be the problem?

Specs:

Ryzen 5 5600x

GTX 1050/ RX 580 (from older pcs, I plan to get 3060 ti, just so you don't think I'm totally stupid)

MSI B550 Tomahawk


If you need more info, ask please. Thank you if anyone tries to help me. I couldn't find anything useful on google.
 
Solution
Did you flash your BIOS to support that CPU? Sometime you can boot with the Ryzen 5000 without having the BIOS and it gives issues. BIOS
7C91vA5 should be used on your board.


What version of Windows 10 and from what source are you trying to boot from? Is this a new Windows 10 install on the new build or an old Windows 10 already installed from another system?

Windows 10 created with Windows Media Creation Tool?

Im not sure what version of windows 10 it is but probably the newest. Yes i created it with Windows Media Creation Tool. I could also try to boot installed windows from my old computer but it was prebuilt so it probably would not work. I did not update the BIOS tho so I will try that. I also did not mention that the BIOS ran on really low fps but thats probably normal.

Ok so I updated the BIOS and it works. Even the frame rate was much better. Thank you so much for your help. It's my first time building a PC so I just don't have the knowledge.
