Hi, I just put together a fresh build a few hours ago and instantly started runninf into problems.
First, the comp hangs on the bio splash upon startup for 15 or so seconds; definitely not normal.
Second, upon initializing windows 7 install, it takes 10 secs or so for the mouse and keyboard to become responsive, and after it resets after the copy/extract phase, it just stays on "completing installation"- the computer is still responsive during this phase, but it makes little or no progress even after an hour.
Another strange issue is: every time the comp resets, whether its after exiting and saving the bios or during windows, the hdd and fans will stop before it boots back up. Aren't resets supposed to be a bit softer than that?
What could be causing this?
Im thinking about just taking the motherboard back to microcenter and getting a new one.
System specs: Intel i5 4670k
Asrock z87 extreme4
Corsair vengeance 4gb x2
Corsair cx600m psu
Ati 7850 1gb
This is all incredibly frustrating and any help would be appreciated.

Take new memory too. G.Skill is better.
