Hey guys and gals I am having a little trouble with booting my computer after I have made a few hardware changes. I have never changed my MOBO before so I am not really well versed in what to do. Just put a new Gigabyte GA Z97X Gaming 5 with a new Intel i7 4790k 4.0Ghz processor and new RAM (2X8GB Kingston HyperX Fury 1600MHZ). My original hardware includes a GeForce GTX 460 graphics card, Samsung SSD, WD HDD, OCZ 850W Z Series PSU, and a wireless card. I was booting windows 7 64bit off of the SSD. Right now I can access the BIOS, but when I try to boot Windows it shows the Windows start up screen and then BSOD. I am not sure where to go from here. Any help will be appreciated.

I don't think I have the original install disk unfortunately. Is there another way I can do that?

Sounds like your Master Boot Record is screwed up, or you have a driver conflict. This can happen if you just pull a HDD and stuff it in a new machine.... Can you boot it into safe mode (Hold F8 when it boots after the POST screen)

Nope, no safe mode.
