Hello, I have recently purchased a MSI LGA1155/Intel H61/DDR3/A&GbE/MicroATX Motherboard H61M-P31 (W8) from amazon.com in order to use my current system (a pre-built one) in an ATX/mATX case.
Here is a link to the officlal MSI page for it.
Here are my system specifications:
Processor: Intel Core i7 2600
Memory: 8GB DDR3-1333
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
PSU: EVGA 650w Gold Standard
HDD: 2TB SATA HDD
Optical Reader: SuperMulti DVD Burner Drive
And My Previous motherboard was a Camel2.
After I hooked up my system I finally hit the power button and fired it up. The MSI Splash Screen turns on, and then after POST the definitive "Starting Windows" logo fires up, but before the four lights can combine and make the Windows logo, the system freezes, blue-screens and then reboots, and continues to do so until I turn it off, or go to BIOS etc.
When I'm using the VGA cable, it simply restarts the booting process, but with a DVI cable, it flashes a blue screen, but it restarts before I can decipher it.
I have already tried flashing the bios via the 3.6 update (the latest BIOS version) but it didn't do any good, it still loops.
I wondered if it might be the hard drive, because before it goes to the "Starting Windows" boot sequence, it asks me to either start windows Normally, or to diagnose it. So I tried plugging in another hard drive, and it still didn't load past "Starting Windows."
I have also already attempted booting in safe mode, it loads a couple drivers before it just crashes, and restarts.
Can the motherboard itself be defective in some way? Or perhaps there is a slight compatibility issue?
This system worked perfectly fine before hand.
Thank you for your time.
