So about 2 weeks ago I installed an Asrock 980de3/us3s motherboard along with an AMD FX 4300 quad core processor. After sorting out my new Windows I started noticing strange problems with booting. The BIOS would boot normally, but after the Windows 8 loading screen, just before the log in Welcome screen, the screen would go black, sometimes a cursor would appear, sometimes I would get flashes of the purple welcome screen, sometimes nothing at all. After that I would reboot several times, getting simillar results for a while. After 4-6 tries I would somehow get my system to boot properly. After that there are no problems whatsoever, I even left the PC running for 3 full days, no problems, freezes, blue screens whatsoever. In the time the PC was left on I was playing games, browsing the internet, same thing as always. No problems whatsoever. I would really appreciate some insight as to what may be causing this increasingly annoying problem. Also, something I failed to mention, for the first boot after upgrading, and several days later, my GPU was not working, the fan would start spinning and then stop after a moment, doing that in loop, the screen was black nothing was appearing. It somehow started working again randomly after a while.
My specs:
AMD FX 4300 3.8 GHz
Asrock 980de3/u3s3
