Computer restarts can't install OS.

[msandrea]

Have a ASUS Sabertooth Z170S
i5-6600k
Two types of RAM because I had a different motherboard that worked for a week then had faulty DIMM Slots?

Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000MHz DDR4 16GB(2x8GB)
Kingston HyperX 2666MHz DDR4 16GB(2x8GB

Seasonic 750W PSU

HyperEvo 212 Cooler

 

 

Computer will boot bios, can do things in bios, will work forever and ever in bios, however when I try to use the installation media (Both USB and CD or a previously used HDD that I somehow managed to get an installation going but due to the restarting now has to do automatic repair 100000% of the time.) The computer will just cycle and keep restarting itself doing the same thing. Cannot install anything. First time I installed the bare necessities everything went through, the windows repair was working and then it froze, have tried using different slots of the RAM, different brand of RAM, one stick per slot, clearing CMOS, updated BIOS and reversing back to original BIOS. CPU temp is roughly around 23 C.

Windows 7 on the CD, and windows 7 or 10 on the usb. Downloaded the install tool directly from Microsoft's site.

What kind of drive are you using to hold the OS? Have you made sure to delete all the partitions and create and format a new partition?

Can't get that far. It just reboots.

Using a brand new WD 1TB blue.

If both the installation CD and the bootable flash drive experience the same boot loop issue, then it sounds like you have a hardware issue. If you have tested every component in the system and know it all to be good, then I would guess the HDD is faulty. Do you have a different drive that you can try, just for comparison?
