This is an old build, new motherboard issue. This is my old build and old mb
Intel i7 2600k
Asus p8p67 pro
g skill f3 17000cl 11d 8gbxl
Ocz vertex 3 120gb ssd. <---- OS
500gb sata hd
Evga gtx 570 hd

This rig would not power up suddenly. I would press the power buttonand get a brief flash of power. I tried a different power supply. Same thing. Tried switching out memory, video cards, etc. still nothing. So I ordered a new mb.

Gigabyte z68xp-ud3

It powers up now however since its a new mb windows won't load. So I load up my win7 cd. Boot from the cd. 'windows is loading files...' then either a black screen no cursor or a restart. If I try 'boot windows normally' it 'starting windows' for a second or two then restarts. No matter what I do I am unable to get to any kind of recovery window or setting. The only Settings I can reach is bios.

Have you tried starting it up with one stick of memory? And also, it might be the speed of that RAM, 2133 is hard on motherboards to support fully, espically p68 chipsets, but I dont really see that being that big of a problem, but you never know with hardware.

I have tried switching to one piece of ram, then switching which one is in. I have even tried disconnecting my ssd and using a regular hd just to get SOMETHING to come up on my screen. The only thing left is the memory. I have some new sticks in the mail. Hoping that does it.

When i disabled auto restart through the F8 boot menu I got a BSOD with the following error code.

stop: 0x000000f7 (0x00003c1b7519ba5f, 0x0000341b7519ba5f, 0xffffcbe48ae64 5a0, 0x0000000000000000)

All cables are connected correctly as far as I know from the new motherboards manual.

From what I've read about those stop codes it seems to be a drive issue. Have you tried any other drives? If so did you plug out the other ones and try and install windows then. On most motherboards there's a specific sata connection that your "boot drive" should be plugged into. Make sure it corresponds with that as well.

I will recheck the motherboard to see if there is a specific drive slot. I have switched around EVERY piece of equipment in my PC except the CPU, which is being shipped at this very moment. I have tried my Vertex 3 SSD, a regular HDD with stuff on it, an empty reg HDD, even NO HDD. I have tried Booting from a thumb drive, an USB CDROM drive, a SATA CDROM drive, and multiple different Win 7 CDs. NOTHING loads, no safe mode, no recovery, no restore, nada. Can't even get to a command prompt. Memtest came out fine. When my new CPU gets here, I am going to unhook everything and go step-by-step with the mb manual. If that still doesn't work... I am going to throw it through a wall.

Bad CPU. Apparently the 2600k i7's have a problem with cold booting at some point. Just installed a new i5 3570k. Recovery loaded fine. Now I am trying to get my windows 7 to accept my new board.

Edit: Everyone is running nice at the moment.
