Posted March 9, 2020 So i have this problem with my pc, it worked fine until i replaced the cpu and thermal paste put the cooler back on. Plugged everything back in, the system starts and says new cpu installed, press f1 to go into the setup. So far pretty normal. I didn't change any settings, i selected the device it had to boot and than i saw the asus logo on screen and windows saying preparing automatic repair, after about 5 seconds or so the screen turns black and the system restarts?! And again and again etc untill you press the powerbutton. Then i tryed putting in a bootable windows 10 installer usb the same story, bios of my mobo is fully updated to the latest version. Does anyone have an idea of how to fix? Please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what cpu ram and motherboard are you using. As a general rule it is a good idea to do a clean install of windows when upgrading components to avoid any driver issues etc but remeber to back up any important data first! Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted March 9, 2020 I don't think that will help you but you can check if the thermal paste is applied correctly. I had a similar problem but with my gpu, the thermal paste wasn't applied correctly so while gaming my monitor was losing signal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 9, 2020 Author My specs are Asus p8h61-i r2.0 8 gb ram 2x4 gb crusial 1666mhz I7 2600k Rx Vega 56 Coolermaster master wat lite 600 watt psu Two kinston ssd 120&240 gb Because i am moving down one generation (from ivy bridge to sandy bridge) would that require a downgrade in bios?

Also no you wont need to downgrade the bios version. Just to rule it out, unplug and then reconnect your 24pin and 4/8pin power plugs to make sure that they are connected properly it most likely wont do anything but is always worth a shot. and please remeber to backup any documents or save game files etc before reinstalling windows!

Posted March 9, 2020 If it goes to windows then there is probably chipset driver issues in the OS rather than any hardware issue. Fresh windows install will fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 11, 2020 Author I am going to try a differemt board i at the moment have two of the same asus boards now when i put the cpu in either one of them is doesnt work im thinking that the motherboard doesnt supply enough power to the cpu or the chipset is failing or something does anyone have a suggestion for mobo z77 or z68?

I don't think the cpu is refusing to work due to not getting enough power by the mainboard; unless the psu is faulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried two different powersupplies so i don't know. Now one thing to note is that both of these board were pulled from some old pc's, both work with my i5 3470, only with the i7 they don't work.

That's irrelevant, he can't even run the installer which uses nothing from his existing install. So there must be something else at play. Definitely clear CMOS though.

Before doing anything clear CMOS then head into the BIOS setup again and only set the ATA interface mode to AHCI and set the boot order to #1 removable dev. #2 hard drive Ata interface on stock is set to ahci, i changed the boot order to #1 usb but the same issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
