my friend needs help with his computer

aries757

so my friend had an alienware computer which encased an i5 7400, which was the only thing he took from it, and he plans to upgrade that also, but he bought new everything cooler. etc.

 

Motherboard MSI z270 SLI

he also kept his hard drive cause redownloading the games would take forever he said,

 

but he did everything and put it together and i helped go through it and the thing is is that it says their is no boot media when he has it set as first boot option and when its the second (first being bios) it wont work either.

Why...Z270 is a dead platform, can he still return things?

 

Just make a windows 10 USB using microsoft's media creation tool? Doesn't even need a key to install.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Did he just try to move the drive or was it a fresh install?
