I just upgraded my CPU and Motherboard. I have everything connected properly but I cannot get passed the Bios screen. It boots to "Windows error recovery screen". If I click "start windows normally" it flashes to a blue screen and then restarts. If I click "Launch startup repair" nothing is found at the end of the scan. Do I need to reinstall windows 7 ( I have no idea what my serial # is) or do I need to update the Bios somehow?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks everyone.
