I got a new motherboard today and installed it. Once I turned my computer on it flashes the BIOS screen and goes to a screen to either start windows normally or start in repair mode. When I start windows normally it will do the windows 7 spinning thing to make the logo and then I get a blue screen and it tells me that my hard drive isn't plugged in all the way. I then turned it off and started it in repair mode and it will load it then my monitor will tell me that I need to change back to the native resolution of the screen and turns off. One of the times I put it in repair mode it it loaded and showed a really messed up looking screen that looked like someone scribbled all over it. I have reseated my ram and gfx cards, made sure everything is plugged in. I triple checked the HDD and still the same thing. What is wrong?! Im so worried that i have destroyed my computer! Anyone know how to fix it?

Did you reinstall the operating system, or just install the new board, and start up?

If you didn't reinstall the operating system, it is the proverbial " there's your problem"

power down, pull out the secondary graphics card, power up into BIOS, toggle a BIOS hardware setting and reboot to attempt your windows install. After you have the system up and running on the first graphics card, add the second and the card bridge. Make sure all the monitors you want to connect are connected on your primary graphics card.

The thing is is that Cyberpower never gave me the install disks with my computer. They wont send them out either because they said they put them in every shipment with an OS.

You have to reinstall Windows from scratch.

The drivers for the new board are different.

You should be able to down load windows, if you have a license, key sticker.

I just did it for 7 pro, and Vista, I'll see if I can find the link.

Download, and then burn to disk.
It is an ISO, so you use the ISO burner option in you burner program.

Then just install it as normal, after you set your CD to boot first.

Don't forget you also have to download and install the drivers, after you install windows.

Asrock will have the board drivers, and Sapphire will have the video drivers.

Of course if CyberPower is worth anything, they should have all the drivers available on their sight, for download.
Every other computer manufacturer dose..
