Hey guys,
on the weekend, I assembled a PC for my brother, but we ran into a few issues which I feel super bad about since this is his first real PC and now it won't work.
https://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/Freakspot/saved/JTV27P This is the build we're using with Windows 10 Pro 64bit. (It's actually 2x8gb of RAM, not 1x16gb.)
The issues we're having is that the PC sometimes on startup or shutdown (and one time when we ran Userbenchmark) goes unresponsive: We start the PC and as soon as the Windows login screen shows, it's simply dead (but this doesn't happen 100% of the time). The clock won't update and you cannot move your mouse. We flashed the Bios to the newest version and our GPU drivers seem to be up to date, too.
Another weird thing that's happened, is that when we swapped the GPU to the other slot, the screen was tinted green. A restart solved this issue, but still. Additionally, under Devices and Printers, "Desktop" shows up with a warning sign, because "PCI device drivers are not up to date" (or something along those lines). IIRC it shows code 28. However, I'm unsure what PCI devices that's refering to?
I kinda suspect the motherboard being borked, because it was shipped with a fairly significant dent in the box indicating it's been dropped before. However, I'm most certainly still a noob at this, so I would incredibly appreciate your input, guys! Please help me!
