Maybe the weirdest problem I've ever run into. I just upgraded my PC, everything besides the HDD and the GPU. Since I got a new MOBO I definitely need to reinstall Windows 7.
I have a USB that I put Windows 7 onto and used Rufus to make it a bootable device. This is how I installed Windows previously on my old machine. When I boot into the USB, it either sits on a black screen with a blinking underscore. When it actually boots into the Windows startup installation program, it tells me that no proper drivers could be found. When I try to boot into my HDD, I get an error that pretty much says there is nothing to boot into. I am at a complete loss here. The only possible reason I can think of for the USB drive not working is that my new machine is USB 3.0 and this is 2.0, but still I don't know because it still boots into the startup screen.
