Did you install the drivers for your motherboard and video card?

It sounds like you need to read the manual that came with your motherboard. When you're sure you followed those instructions, if you're still having problems, come back, and give us details of what happens when the problems arise. Include the make and model of your motherboard, RAM, video card, hard drive(s), power supply and anything else that could affect the performance of your system.

Good luck.

you need to adjust setting in the BIOS as the 1st step before ever installing a OS. Power Saving, HDD Performance, etc..

I would agree with Harvey, check to see if you did everything correctly and then provide additional info on your system
