SPEC: Ryzen 3 2200g, 2x4gb 2400, 450w psu, 1TB western digital blue, GIGABYTE B450 DS3H mobo, a case. All parts are new and maybe they are not working properly? So how would you scan them without an OS to make sure they are ok?

 

I have been spending a few days trying to install win 10 and its not working. its my first build so im not sure what to do ive tried many options pls help. The first time I tried to install win 10 I was using an old version of the BIOS(f4). I was able to boot off of the USB with the win 10 installion on it and I successfully did. After I did the basic what you are supposed to do it gave me this error message. Ive tried some solution and I also tried making a partition with command prompt but i could not becaue when I typed "diskpart" it showed everything but then I could not type anything after I typed diskpart in to cmd. I did not know what to do so I updated my BIOS to f40 and tried to boot again but this time it didnt even boot all the way to windows setup like last time. Instead when I booted off the usb it shows the windows logo with a dotted loading circle turning right below the windows logo for about 10 seconds. After that it goes black and I cannot even reach win setup like I did with the old BIOS. im not sure what to do but I thought of sending the mobo back to amazon and buying an msi board? is this a good idea or bad? The hard drive shouldn't be damaged, its brand new and does not make any weird noises. The usb is a usb 3.0 with 32gb of space so I dont think thats the problem and it booted on the f4 version so usb is good. Ive tried messing around with my BIOS settings too. pls help idk what to do now im stuck

When DISKPART can't load that's usually an indicator there's a problem accessing a connected storage media. This can be from a bad drive (drives can show up DOA), a bad SATA cable, or a software issue.

 

Now your USB deciding to stop working too makes things more complicated to diagnose. Can you verify both the HDD & the USB work if you plug them into another computer?

diskpart showed stuff like info and all that I just could not type anything and yes the usb works on another computer but how would I plug the drive into another computer or a laptop?

Making things all the more complicated.

 

On a different desktop you'd connect it the same way you connected it to this current computer. On a laptop you'd require an adapter.

 

Did you try swapping your RAM? Pull a stick, try booting, exchange it for another, try a different slot, etc.

ill try putting my ram in 1 and 3 instead of 2 and 4. Would this fix something?

Faulty RAM or faulty RAM slot can cause all sorts of software errors (especially on Chrome). It's worth a shot to swap it around and remove a stick. If your installer suddenly starts behaving then you're on to something.
