Windows 10 won't boot on my new PC, help!

Bo_jangles

I just got my new PC, and Windows won't boot, it gets to the bios screen then looks for input and the monitor turns off, all the parts are compatible, and I've tested the HDD in another rig. The specs are:

Cpu: AMD Athlon x4 950 

MOBO: Asus Prime B350M-A

Gpu: Msi 1050ti Armor PC edition

RAM: Crucial Ballistix 2133mhz 8gb 

HDD: Western Digital Black 1tb

PSU: Corsair CX 500w

Thanks.

if the monitor goes off after the bios comes up, it could very well be that the PC has indeed booted into windows, but is unable to initialise the graphics drivers for windows. unfortunately i dont think your system has integrated graphics so not sure what to suggest, any ideas @LinusTechTipsFanFromDarlo @Bo_jangles ?

You have made the drive that stores Windows boot first in the boot priority?

Would it work if I used another PC to install Windows and put on the drivers and everything then put it back? Thanks
