New PC Build Windows 11 problems

[livelaughliao]

Ive been having major issues installing Windows on my new pc build.

 

After days of fooling around with it, Windows 11 finally installed from my bootable disk but only in MBR mode from Rufus. After setting it up and it looking normal my windows crashes constantly and there seems to be corrupt system 32 files. I ran cmd line admin chksys and restore health and all those methods and they fail every time. I even tried to re install windows and got this error message. Any help would be much appreciated!!

You have had issues creating the bootable drive?

Have you tried using another flash drive or redownloading the ISO in case it has become corrupted?

Using Rufus should not be an unstable operation.

 

Why is there a Windows 10 error with a Windows 11 background? (this might just be microsoft doing microsoft stuff.)

Which OS are you trying to install?

[livelaughliao]

Yes ive used multiple bootable drives on Rufus 

I tried downloading both windoes 10 and 11 iso and doing a clean install but nothing is working.

 

Even when i make a new windows 11 iso bootable drive it just goes to BSOD with Sys 32 errors

Just confirming: You are booting into the USB from the BIOS and not running the updater on your desktop, right?

[livelaughliao]

Yes I try to boot from the usb in bios and it goes straight to BSOD and gives me system 32 errors

Have you tried running the installer with the minimum hardware required?

No GPU, no extra drives, or any peripheral connected to USB beside a mouse and the flash drive.

[livelaughliao]

Ill give it a try

[livelaughliao]

didnt work

This is screaming corrupted media tool to me, but if you have tried multiple flash drives and installation media, it must be something with the hardware.

Since it still doesn't work with only the barebones components, now we have to move those too.

Reseat the CPU and RAM and try again.

I am going to recreate the installation media again and send a screenshot to make sure its correct. Does this look right?

[Yua]

It looks good to me; the default values after selecting the ISO should work.

[livelaughliao]

After that is done are there any specific bios settings i should do before plugging it in?

Reset to default?

[Yua]

Sure, it never hurts to reset them to their factory settings.

Once you connect the boot drive and go to the BIOS while in EZ mode, you can press F8, which will pop up a list of possible boot drives. Just click the flash drive with your mouse. There is no need to change the order or anything.

Do i need to format my m.2 first?

No, it can be done by the installer.

Uh, weird. I was expecting to see your SSD and the drive.

Just pick any of those since they seem to be the same.

[livelaughliao]

It just gives me this error when i click on either of them.

 

The only way my SSD and drive shows up together is if i enable CSM.

 

I included some of the other BIOS settings so you can let me know if i need to change anything

 

PS thanks so much for the help so far!!!

Did you end up reseating the CPU and the RAM?

Yes! When taking the CPU out, make sure to inspect the motherboard for any bent pins.
