Hey there ive got a computer i tryed to put together and im guessing i failed. The AMD Phenom im trying to use came from an XP Computer and im trying to run windows 7 installation on it, the harddrive cae from a windows 7 home premium computer and the motherboard from an xp so i think they're conflicting so my mouse ad keyboard (which are usb connections) arent working and i canot proceed with the setup.

So i need new suggestions as to what kind of motherboard/RAM to get. i have a big enough case for anything i am sure,

i have:
Gefore GTX 660 Graphics Card
and a 550W Power supply

Im looking for an affordable motherboard that isnt going to haveso many problems and is windows 7 compatible so that i dont have this installation problem.

Or if anyone has had this problem an is aware of how to fix it then please by all means do so!

Example, you can grab an Asus Maximus VI Hero, i5 4670k CPU and 8 gigs of quality ram for $525 roughly shipped. Be a blazing fast setup for short money setup for gaming/media.
