Windows stuck in automatic repair loop after replacing RAM.

This is my first pc build and im still very new to this. I build my pc about 2 month ago and its been running great until today when I tried to upgrade my RAM. I made the swap and put windows into this automatic reapir loop. After reading a fee forums I read that a few people have has this issue and it was resolved and everything worked perfectly again after putting the original RAM sticks back in. Unfortunately for me this did not resolve the issue and im at a point where I dont want to do anything else in fear of making the situation worse.

Msi b450 tomahawk max mobo

16gb(2×8)HyperX fury DDR4 2400 mhz

Tried swapping to Ballistix 16gb (2×8) 3200 mhz

You can first try resetting cmos if you didn’t do it before

3200mhz I updated op. I have not reset cmos. I remember seeing something that it can be a battery on the mobo but im not familiar with it.

You can reset the UEFI settings (clear CMOS) by one of the following methods:

 1. Go to the Exit tab in the UEFI and select Load Optimized Defaults.

2. Press the Clear CMOS button on your motherboard (if it has one).

3. Unplug the computer and remove the coin cell battery on the motherboard for a few minutes and then reinsert it.

The F1 to enter setup is normal after clearing Cmos. Then you can update your time and date, if you notice, it's not accurate. 

 

F10 save settings and restart, post windows.

 

If windows continues the error repair, you hit the F8 key and enter windows in safe mode. Open MSconfig and go to startup tab. Any OC software you have installed starting with windows, may be causing the error issue. disable the software then restart and try to post windows normally.

The hardware is fine, something else is going on with the OS.

Thanks for the replys. I really appreciate it. I had yo go take care of some things but im now back trying to figure this out. I have tried f2 upon start up and that didnt work so im now going to try and go into safe mode and uninstall my msi afterburner to see if that helps.

So when I go into the advanced options in the troubleshooting window I cant put in into safe mode. It just put me in the same auto repair loop. Should I reset my pc? I feel like this is my only option at this point.

if you need Desktop data and c drive data then Try " Darik's Boot & Nuck"   


Boot it with pen drive or CD/DVD,  

Load "Mini XP" 

 

Then it will be successfully load a Temporary OS

Open my computer and copy the data what do you want, 


Exit

then after install Fresh/Newly Updated OS. ;)
