    BSOD when pc booting recent upgrade of motherboard and cpu


    Evening all,
    Desperate for some help just upgraded my pc componants and now it will not start at all.
    As far as i can see all the bios settings are correct. On first start up a message come up first saying no disks found, then when i click onto the bios menu i have AHCI mode enabled and it detects SSD and CD drive absolutly fine.
    First i tried booting from original SSD with windows 7 already installed.. kept getting BSOD everytime i get to windows loading screen.
    Then after reading on forums people were re-installing windows back on to the SSD, but when trying to boot from the cd drive(yes its a bootable disc) nothing happens and it just goes to the windows repair screen then does nothing after attempting to repair. i have tried removing the SSD so only the cd drive is visable but then it comes up with the message "reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press any key"

    I have removed graphics card and tried on board graphics.
    I have tried barebones.
    I have tried new cables.
    I have cleared Cmos + update

    My Componants:

    Mobo: AsRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 (NEW)
    CPU: intel core i3 processor LGA1155 (NEW)
    Memory: Corsair Dominator 4GB 133mhz (TW3X4G1333C9D) (OLD)
    PSU: Hyper 630w (OLD)
    SSD: ocz sata 2.0 120gb (OLD) 1month old
    Graphics Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 460 (OLD) 1month old
    Cooler: Corsair H80 (NEW)
    Case: Coolermaster 690II advanced nVidia edition (NEW)

    All the old componants were working previosly

    Any thoughts or ideas would be very greatfull as i've spent 2 days on it now

    Cheers

    Windows doesn't support motherboard changes. It looks like you're going to have to reinstall

    Ok that's what I thought. Anybody have a suggestion on why it doesn't boot from cd drive? It shows up in bios but doesn't do anything. Cheers
