So I've got a conundrum with this little Ryzen system I'm putting together. It's a 2200G on an AsRock B450M-HDV with 16GB (2x8) G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3000 and a 1TB WD Blue. Just a cheap, simple little machine.

 

So everything went together no issues as usual, it POSTs no problem, but it will not boot to USB without issues and won't let me install Windows 10 to the HDD or boot into Linux Mint on a USB stick, just black screens.

 

I swapped hard drives thinking the Blue was no good and managed to install Windows 10 after a 5 hour wait but it would not boot into Windows after the install supposedly completed. 

 

I have already swapped the motherboard for a new one at the store, and the issue persists so at this point I'm wondering if the CPU is the issue.

 

Thoughts?

The New Machine: Intel 11700K / Strix Z590-A WIFI II / Patriot Viper Steel 4400MHz 2x8GB / Gigabyte RTX 3080 Gaming OC w/ Bykski WB / x4 1TB SSDs (x2 M.2, x2 2.5) / Corsair 5000D Airflow White / EVGA G6 1000W / Custom Loop CPU & GPU

 

The Rainbow X58: i7 975 Extreme Edition @4.2GHz, Asus Sabertooth X58, 6x2GB Mushkin Redline DDR3-1600 @2000MHz, SP 256GB Gen3 M.2 w/ Sabrent M.2 to PCI-E, Inno3D GTX 580 x2 SLI w/ Heatkiller waterblocks, Custom loop in NZXT Phantom White, Corsair XR7 360 rad hanging off the rear end, 360 slim rad up top. RGB everywhere.

Very well could be

 

If you wanted to test it, you could probably order a boot kit from AMD

Well after some more tests the CPU works just fine, it's just an AsRock being a crap motherboard maker that's the issue. I installed Windows to a new hard drive using a different computer and then transplanted it and now it works fine. Still won't boot properly from USB but whatever.
