ASUS Crosshair V
AMD Phenom II X6 3.3
Corsair XMS3 8 GB (2x4gb)
...and a GTX 240 lol, just ordered the asus 7950 to go along with the new crosshair ( long story - stationed in germany.. shipped the PC, two radeon 6950's showed up broken, and the motherboard didn't look too hot.)
a WD 500gb primary running windows 7
and a SeaGate 2 TB standby
ANTEC Lanboy air
So as the title reads, I just installed my brand spanking new motherboard - just came in today... rearranged the cords in the case too and made it look all pretty
Problem is, anytime I try go past the bios it freezes within a minute or two. Windows won't boot normally, nor will it complete it's little installation repair thingy. My keyboard and mouse work inside my bios, however as soon as the windows logo starts making it's pretty spinny colors and my little green bars get to goin'... the light on the bottom of my mouse goes out, (it demonstrates responsiveness when I click any of the button's by flickering the red light at me like it's teasing me) and my keyboard appears to be totally unresponsive.
The thing confusing me is, windows appears to function and appears to be responsive (however, it demonstrates otherwise), I just can't input any information to it to test whether or not it works. I can't reinstall windows because the initial windows screen where you select your language makes my keyboard/mouse "turn off" just the same. I'm at my wits end, and I've never tried doing this whole forum thing for help so, here goes.
