So I recently decided to be a genius and buy a new shiny 5960x and upgrade my rusty 5820k, little did I know that apparently putting a new chip in would ruin my day. I can't get the bloody to boot into windows it posts fine I get bios no worries but when it goes into booting to Windows 8.1 I get 2 spins of the circle and either it freezes or gives me a black screen. I tried another ssd that had windows 10 on it but it ended up just giving me a blue screen with the error INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE 

Been driving me nuts any help would be appreciated.

 

Specs:

i7 5960x 

Msi x99a sli plus

Gtx 1080Ti aurous 

Samsung 960 evo 1Tb

Flame Intel for that 28/44 Lane Bullshit with LGA2011-3 and later pls.

 

Anyway:

a) Try CMOS CLEAR

b) Remove all devies (M.2 SSD, Graphics card), put the Graphics card in a different slot, turn on and see if it boots.

If it doas, add the M.2 SSD and see what happens.

 

If that doesn't work, put the GPU in a different slot.

 

 

BUT:
The question is if the CPU is OK and works as intended...


Though I'd try CMOS Clear anyway....

-Cleared cmos

-Moved the gpu to every slot with and without the nvme 

-Tried just booting off a pure sata ssd 

-Tried booting off a windows usb and DVD 

-Tried IDE AHCI and raid sata modes 

 

So far the only thing that has worked is just putting the 5820k back in and it works fine

Make sure you have the newest bios first, then, do a clean install of windows on an extra drive if you have one. If you can't get windows booting through that your new cpu is bad
