Hello fellow nerds!
I just recently updated my rig with:
ASUS Maximus VI Hero
Core I5 4670k
Gigabyte GTX 770 windforce 4gb

And since I got my new stuff and putted it together I keep getting BSOD. I really need to know why so I can fix it as fast as possible. I also got a picture of the blue screen if you clever people want to see it :)
 
I`m going to ask a very key question here.
When you replaced the motherboard, did you do a fresh clean install of windows.
If you did not, and simply used the old hard drive with the previous installation configured to the old board used.

It is the cause of your BSOD errors.

If you replace the board you must do a fresh, clean windows install.
 


A little more to what he is saying. You 'updated my rig', so if you had a computer from a OEM like Dell, Gateway, etc. it included a OEM Windows, that is ONLY allowed to be used on the 'old rig' hardware and coded that way. You would need to buy a 'off the shelf' windows and reinstall clean.

That said, Windows is the VERY last test of a new build. Do you get to BIOS fine? Does it show all the parts in the BIOS, so it is working?

I did a new clean installation of Windows 7, and my system wasn't not a "market pc" like asus.

The only other cpu I got is an Amd with another motherboard, but that won't solve the problem would it?

I know it won't, but I got an AMd motherboard too, but i'll just try the igpu, but where can I download the new bios?

How can I get the blue screen to occur or at least test if it will come again?

Got the same problem here... (Same MoBo, processor and asus gtx770). Bios is all ok, did one change in the EZ (performance mode enabled). After this I quit the bios and windows was just starting. Then this BSOD came up with the same error message. Called a friend and he said it's a problem due the difference of architecture of the MoBo and said I would need to reinstall windows. One problem though, this was an illegal version and got no boot-cd. Contacted the local pc-shop hotline. He said that windows 8 may not be sold with a boot-cd??? At least they still have the windows 7 home premium with boot-cd.

What did this clean install at your end SuperSpar?
