Keennuts Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 So I recently put together a new computer build and it seemed like it was running fine, I installed my drivers etc and even played a few games. What started to happen is the Windows logo upon startup froze either a black screen or a dot of color that ends up making the color logo. I tried restarting a few times and sometimes I could get to the desktop and run everything normally, but every time I'd shut down and boot up I would run into the same problem. I tried a fresh install to see if I was having problems with Windows updates causing compatibility problems but what happens now is I get a blue screen that flashes for a split second and ends up trying to reboot, which ends up in a endless loop. The blue screen says check for viruses on your computer remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers, this happened on a fresh install. I'm using a SSD and a 2TB WD HD. I've tried to use just one hard drive and do a fresh install but both gives the same results. Is it possible both hard drives are junk? If anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated. Here are my current specs.ASUS X99-A LGA 2011-v3 Intel X99 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard Intel Core i7-5930K Haswell-E 6-Core 3.5 GHz LGA 2011-v3 140W BX80648I75930K Desktop Processor G.SKILL Ripjaws 4 Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Intel X99 Platform Extreme Performance SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 500GB SATA III 3-D Vertical Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E500B/AM WD Black 2TB Performance Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD2003FZEX EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 06G-P4-4995-KR 6GB SC+ GAMING w/ACX 2.0+, Whisper Silent Cooling w/ Free Installed Backplate XFX P1-850B-BEFX 850W ATX12V 2.2 & ESP12V 2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Full Modular Active Running Windows 7 64bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joetorp Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Do you have "halt on errors" in your bios checked? You mentioned a blue screen flashing by. Is your bios up to date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keennuts Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 I'd have to manually install updates for the bios? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joetorp Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 You shouldn't, look in the manual, my MSI MB has a flash bios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
