I had to RMA my Asus Intel board so I put in my AMD Gigabyte one I used to use and I get the message "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart" with the code "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION". I can get into the bios just fine but I can't boot into safe mode.
 
Solution
If you are using the same boot disk and swapped motherboards, that won't work. You need to re-install Windows clean on the other motherboard.
