Hey folks so I installed new mobo which is Asus H81m plus and i5 4670 CPU first time I booted it said new CPU detected and it said go to bios and to do something but I have no idea what its called bios utility ez mode, from boot menu I select my HDD which then tries boot to windows but what I get is 1sec blue screen then it starts boot from start again with asus logo to press f2 or del to enter bios, I also got boot priority DVD drive first then HDD I swap for HDD to be first I don't know if that does any changes hope someone can help.

Yeah, you are going to have to re-install Windows or try changing the SATA configuration settings on the new mother board. I would try IDE or ACHI, Raid if the other two don't work. If nothing works you will have to re-install Windows.


Did you re-install Windows?

If you didn't it is probably due to the fact that Windows was installed under IDE and your new motherboard is trying to run in ACHI.

Didn't do any re install just connected HDD that has everything before I upgraded mobo and CPU.
