Windows installation crashes early on new built PC

[sihc2t]

Hi,

i got a problem with a newly built PC.
Short specs:
-ASRock Z77 Extreme 6
-i7 3770K
-TridentX DDR3
-SSD Samsung 840

When i start the installation of windows (via USB2/USB3) the screen turns blank shortly after the windows logo (the one after the DOS-like loading bar) pops up.
It doesn't even start the real installation.
i would understand if the SSD causes troubles, but usually it just won't be recognized by the installer... plus i could start at least the basic installer, then choose a different driver and would be good to go ...
So, how do i get windows to install ?

Thanks in advance!

How did you put windows on the USB?

using RT7, a tool to customize windows installations. I used this stick a lot in the last months, it should be ok.

You should use the official windows usb download tool, give that a try

Thanks for the reply, but as i said ... the stick works just fine, i use it often and it didn't cause any errors...
i also tried starting a recovery system, which also crashed, i think it could be a bios problem or memory or something like that.

It turned out the problem was caused by the secondary monitor, somehow it prevented the setup to start properly.

That's odd, never heard of anything like that :S
