Hello everyone, So...
I recently had some issues with my PC and i needed to replace the CPU and The Motherboard. When i tested the system everything worked fine, I played Titan fall for about an hour and went to bed. The next day i went to boot my rig up and it want to a black screen after the 'Windows is Starting' phase. So i thought this was due to the new parts and i needed to re install Windows.. (this has been the problem in the past with my brother's rig). I also wanted to install Windows to a new SSD that i just bought anyways.

So after going through the long process of installing windows i installed my Graphics Driver. The same problem happened. So i read up online and i found that the AMD 14.6 drivers we're causing an issue with the AMD Sata drivers, so i went through the process of fixing this problem and the same thing still happened. SO i formatted again and installed the 14.3 drivers. SAME PROBLEM!!! So i formatted again and installed the drivers that came on the disk and the problem still persists!

Can anyone help??? Thanks Brad

No i have not updated the BIOS of the motherboard, It does say its the December 2013 BIOS so its not that outdated or anything.

Here are my specs:
AMD FX 8320 @3,9Ghz / 4.1Ghz @ Turbo
AMD HD 7870 @1GHz
8GB Corsair RAM @1600Mhz
Gigabyte 970a-UD3P Motherboard

I did try my rig with my brother's Gt 610 and installed the drivers for that and it worked fine? The RAM was in Dual channel mode for the First Time it worked and for the GT 610.

Hi, I've tried those drivers as-well, including the drivers that came on the disk and the problem still persists.

My brother's PC has a custom BIOS from Zoostorm and wont accept graphics that need another Power Source. I am however going to my friends house on Thursday to test it there. I'll update you then.

Thanks for all your help!
