BSOD issues when trying to fresh install
Hello everyone,
I am experiencing some problems with my computer and in a desperate attempt to figure out the problem before I purchase a new computer I am hoping someone can shed some light on my situation.
All of a sudden one last week I had some problems opening up notepad++ so I uninstalled and reinstalled then restarted hoping that would resolve the situation. However, upon rebooting the pc I was given a BSOD error. I was at this point able to get into windows safe mode in where I managed to back up critical data and then went on to attempt some fixes:
At this stage I tried:
CHKDSK (which would not schedule, because as soon as the computer restarted the BSOD would appear)
Windows recovery (attempted several times but on restart totally locked up on loading windows, however safe mode accessible still)
Registry clean
Clean boot (again wouldn't work due to the BSOD)
As a last resort I tried to reinstall windows although this just BSOD when attempting to install, I also tried installing my old version of XP to see if this made any difference, but same problem.
I was unable to access the BIOS settings either as this would just lock up when trying to get in so after attempting to solve this by clearing the cmos with no avail I decided it must be the motherboard so I purchased a new one along with a new SSD.
After setting up the new motherboard and drive I am now able to access the BIOS without problem. Temps look good but when trying to boot windows 7 install (and XP) same problem, excot windows just hangs on the loading windows after one spin of the windows circle logo it just freezes otherwise it produces the BSOD (see error code below)
I have now tried the following:
1) memtest ran for 10 cycles overnight 0 errors
2) tried to boot up ubantu some kind of kernel panic error (see attached SS)
3) disconnected everything apart from essentials (one ram, no gpu, with and without fans etc)
4) disconnected front panel usb and hd audio to see if the usb head is causing the issue
5) tried my old psu to see if the psu was causing the problem
6) tried different cables from my current psu
7) purchased a cheap keyboard to see if that was causing the problem
I am not sure what direction to head now other than go and buy a new case ram and cpu.

Please note: there is no windows install on the new drive I cannot post dmp files as their is no operating system installation to get them from.
