So, after 4 years I decided to rework the insides of my computer. I purchased these parts:
Asus ENGTX460 DIRECTCU/2DI/1GD5 1GB PCI-E
Asus P8P67 LE B3 Intel P67 LGA1155 ATX-motherboard
Intel Core i5 2500K 3,3 GHz LGA1155 -processor
Kingston HyperX blu 4GB (2x2GB) 1600MHz DDR3 CL9
Corsair CX600W V2 CX-series 600 W ATX-power supply
Everything went smoothly until I started the system. Once I boot I see an ASUS logoscreen, after this I see a screen with connected devices listed (not the HDD though), after this another logoscreen after which the system should boot from it's primary device. My machine goes normally to the second logoscreen after which my machine hangs and I get a blurry white/grayish screen.
However, if I disconnect my HDD I can enter bios and boot normally. I've tried all different settings under bios with no luck. I've also tried all sockets on my motherboard.
If I unplug my HDD and boot from my DVD-drive I can enter windows installation normally. During the loading I tried connecting the HDD and the Windows7 installation program recognized it properly with all the partitions and was even able to edit them. It wouldn't install, though, complaining that my system did not support booting from that hdd.
Please, I have so much stuff on the HDD I wish to keep and really can't afford a new HDD. How can I get it to work?
