I need help, once again....

[Alawlor01]

So I've just put some new parts in my computer right, and to my belief it started first time, but then I plug in my monitor then I am saddened, I have just upgraded my mobo to an asrock ab350m pro4 and my cpu to a ryzen 5 1600 and 8 GB of ddr4 ram, and what pops up on my screen is the asrock loading screen then the windows then it says I need to repair my computer or something among that, and I keep retrying but no luck, and then when I try to get in my uefi it doesn't work, then I pressed on repair pc and now it is attempting a repair, this is the first proper time I've upgraded my computer, but I'm unsure of what to do, please help, thanks.

 

Im sorry for putting this in this forum as I'm not sure where it would be.

If it hasn't failed yet then let it continue.  Then if that fails, try to remove the Windows drive and install Windows again using a USB stick on a different drive.

You said that you upgraded your computer, do you mean that windows was already installed ? If yes, changing your motherboard could cause this problem, a fresh windows install will solve it.

Ah you've always got reformat the drive and install a new copy of Windows when you upgrade CPU and Motherboard otherwise Windows tries to find the old specs of the PC and it can't find them so it doesn't go any further into the boot process.

You usually can't use the same install of Windows after a motherboard upgrade.

I'm in the Uefi now this is what is shows.

Notr aways the case. I went from an FX 6350 to an i5 6500 with absolutely no issues, just plugged the hard drive back into the same SATA port on the new board and it worked just fine

It's the motherboard I think, because of what some of the people have said
