Changed the motherboard and expected Windows to work. Nope. Does not work most of the time.
Also, may invalidate your Windows license.
Please folk, don't leave out details. For instance if your motherboard FAILED you can save 100 bucks for a new Windows License unless it's a Dell or such. That OEM license is tied to the motherboard so you're out 100.
-> Nothing is actually broken here. You reinstall Windows and if the hardware is good, it works.
I am unable to boot my PC after uptating motherboard and CPU. I will either get stuck on initiating atuomatic repair, where it freezes every time, or go straight to BSoD saying MACHINE CHECK EXCETION, where it stays at 0%. If I boot from a USB installation medium I also freeze at the setup screen.
How can I troubleshoot the issue when I am only able to access BIOS? All parts of the build are recognised by the motherboard.
