Hey guys. First and foremost, sorry if this has been answered a thousand times already. I tried searching but couldn't find anything specific to my mobo. I'll start from the beginning.

This was originally a prebuilt ibuypower system (my 1st mistake). I decided I wanted to update the psu, gpu and case the original system came with. So I did, but for whatever reason I could not get my system to post with my new gfx card (evga gtx 760). The system would boot completely however with both my old card (gtx 560) and the intel integrated graphics. I tried everything to get this to work - I made sure all of the old drivers were gone, made sure the psu was sufficient, activated PEG as the initial display in the BIOS. Nothing worked.

My last two steps were to try and clear the CMOS and flash the BIOS. Well, now that I cleared the CMOS, Windows won't boot at all. I can still get into the BIOS but the system will freeze at the windows screen right before the login screen and then reboot continously. I have tried booting into safe mode as well and nothing. I do get a blue screen that says that there is a hardware issue detected, but unfortunately I do not have the error code associated with this right now.

I have tried reinstalling Windows. The process freezes right after the black screen that says press any key to boot from cd rom. I tried going into the BIOS and making sure AHCI or IDE was activated. Tried booting in legacy rom instead of EFI.

My current BIOS is F4. Does anyone have any suggestions? Here are my specs.

NZXT Phantom 410

EVGA Geforce GTX 760 4GB
