Upgraded cpu from i5 8400k to i7 9700k and launched pc and my motherboard loading screen will pop up and load for a second and freeze in place. This has lead me down a rabbit hole of failure of trying to boot windows from a usb and messing with BIOS. I am lost please help.

The BIOS the board came with probably didn't support 9th gen. Did you make sure to update the BIOS to the latest version before upgrading the CPU?

 

If you want to update the BIOS, you'll need to put your old CPU back in, update it, and then put in the 9700K.

On Christmas day I got the i7 and I'm still fairly new to building and upgrading PCs but that day I tried to swap the i5 back in and I was still getting nothing but I woke up today saw your reply, swapped the i5 back in and its no longer freezing. When it loads I will update BIOS. Currently it is repairing disk errors. I will reply with an update if it's fixed or not.

Update: PC will load into windows repair mode but every setting I've tried so far only leads to more errors.
