Hello!

I have just finished building my first computer and now when I have tried to install windows I have had some issues. Everything seems to work fine but each time I have finished installing windows I get sent to the BIOS menu.

Full build incase it is important
Processor: Intel Core i7 7700K 4,2GHz Socket 1151 Box without Cooler https://ark.intel.com/products/97129/Intel-Core-i7-7700K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-4_50-GHz

It might be worth to mention that during my build I had some serious issues getting my motherboard to work.

I would be very thankful for help as I would like to start using my computer!

The only reason for going to the BIOS by itself would be something which is causing a problem with booting the computer. Perhaps try entering the BIOS setup and making sure that nothing is overclocked and that the correct drive is chosen as the boot drive and everything is set to the default value.

Yes that is exactly what happens and there is nothing going wrong with the install what I can see. Perhaps the installation of the file is going a bit quick but that is really all I can think of
