Hello,
I am at my wit's end here. I've been at this for almost 10 hours. I recently built a new PC.(First time). I have the MSi Gaming 5 LGA 1150 Motherboard, Noctua NH-D15, i7 4790k, and a GTX 970. and EVGA 600w PSU.
Edit: forgot to mention that PC will turn on even when shutdown.
I don't know what else to do, I've been searching everywhere on the internet for what my problem might be, but no avail. So I built it normally. Everything's fine, all fans are spinning, drive is detected, RAM is detected, CPU, GPU, etc. Then I tried installing my Windows 7 Ultimate CD (OEM, I have bought a different key of course.) When it says "Windows is preparing files" after that is done it goes to the windows loading boot logo and just reboots/shuts off or fatal error BSOD.
I tried it a few times but it kept doing it and so I re-formatted my SSD because it had another OS on it(I was thinking I could just re-format it with the option when installing a new OS).
Still nothing, getting frustrated at that point I got my Windows 8.1 Installation and it went in fine but it kept shutting itself down when I reached the log-in screen or at the loading screen. I have no idea what to do at that point. I did what people told others from putting 1 slot at a time, loosening the CPU cooler as it might be too tight.(temps were fine 35c idle), Removing the GPU and re-seating it, Resetting CMOS(Removed battery for 20 seconds and put back in).
Still nothing, I even put in my new HDD to see if it worked but it gave the same errors, reboots, etc. What I got from my MOBO's debug code was 61,62, and A2 were all I remembered. Reading my manual it completely skips Code 61 and 62. The nearest number to is 63 which translates to "Late CPU Initialization". After I shut-down my newly-built PC and turned it on a few minutes later. It would just turn on for a few seconds then turn off. Sometimes turning on and turning off a few times. Sometimes it would boot up to the BIOS but I can't really do anything as it would just reboot me when I install an O.S.
TL;DR Can't install OS, PC turns on and off, sometimes can go to BIOS. Giving me error code
61 and sometimes 62. Which translates near at "Late CPU Initialization".
Thank you for the time for reading my extremely frustrating problem and I will be searching for what wrong I might have done for my new PC to act like this.
