Specs:
GPU: Radeon R7 370 2GB
CPU: Rysen 5 1600
Cooler: Rysen 5 1600 Stock cooler
MOBO: msi X370 Gaming Pro Carbon
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 288-Pin DDR4
PSU: CX600M Corsair
HDD: Western Digital 1 TB
Case: Corsair ATX 200R
Keyboard: Razer Blackwidow 2013
Mouse: Razer Naga 2014
So I feel that I am a bit screwed in this situation.
I recently blew out my old processor, (Pentium G3258 3.2GHz Dual-Core), and bought the Rysen 5 1600 and had to buy an AM4 Mobo, so I got the MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon.
So, I got everything set up. I run it to the nicely laid out BIOs and it goes perfect, until I try and start up windows. It either: 1. Freezes when it says "Windows starting" and blue screens, or 2. Goes to the Windows 7 login in 800x600 resolution, but the keyboard and mouse are unusable. I've tried enabling Legacy Usb, and I've tried shuffling the boot order around, and tried safe mode, but to no avail. Other posts on this website say that it's a driver issue, and the other option is to use my Windows 7 install disc, or download a Windows 7 iso and repair install because Windows on an older HDD hardly ever works on a new Mobo. But I have no way to download the iso file to the usb, because I don't have access to another computer, and don't have a Windows 7 install disc because I (in hindsight dumb decision) decided to buy it digitally. So, I do have the license key, but no actual way to acquire the iso file to load the repair installation. So what should I do? I'm pretty frustrated and feel kind of screwed on what to do. Go to the library and download it on my usb maybe? Please help!
