I just built a computer for the first time and ran into a lot of tangles, but this tangle I can not wrap my head around.
My computer will not boot properly. I tried installing windows 7 on it and it doesn't seem to be taking.
It will either enter an install loop with the disk or expand the files on the install disk restart and crash altogether and say boot manager is missing. I changed to boot priority to the SSD, i tried making it the optical drive,
I'm not at all sure what I'm doing wrong. Should I change boot mode to UEFI its set to Legacy+UEFI? Would selecting the UEFI opitcal drive as a boot priority or the one just labeled CD/DVD drive matter? I've never seen a BIOS like the one this mother board has.
Build
Mobo: MSI Z87 G55
CPU: i7 4770k
Ram: Gskill sniper 8gb
Gpu: nvidia gtx 660
Psu: RocketFish 550w
120 SSD
3TB HDD
Much appreciated
