Clonkex, first let me sy that even if you wer able to get it to boot into Windows, if the CPU is not supporeted by yjr motherboard, it will never run correcyly. In ome cases it is the internal arcitecture of the way the CPU works that the board has to support. That being said, if your CPU is not supported by your board, it is surprising it will boot under any circumstances. Also, If you have virus problems on your other drive, cloning it would slso transfer the virus. That plus the fact that you can get rid of a virus, but I know of almost no way to repair the filed thr virus damaged.
To try to resolve some of those problems, I would first update your bios from MSI's website. However we need to get you more stable before flashing the bios. If you BSOD during a bios update, it could brick the whole board. So, while you can still boot into windows, please run sfc/ scannow from an elevated comand prompt (click start, type cmd in the search box, right click the entry that appears and select 'run as administrator). In the window that appears after giving it admin permission you can copy/paste this sfc /scannow and press enter. (if you decide to type in the command, please notice the space between sfc and the /) If it runs and finds errors, it will attempt to correct them. When it completes reboot. Now run it again and if errors are found reboot. You may have to do this several times for it to work completely (no more than 4, I would think). What we want is for it to run and report no integrity violations were found. What you are running is the system file checker. It will check only system files and attempt to repair any damaged or corrupted files.
I would also like you to post a sreenshot of Disk management. (Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image) In case you don't know, here is how to post a screenshot on Seven Forums Screenshots and Files - Upload and Post in Seven Forums
I would also like you to run the utility Golden requested inthe second post and upload the files wit your next post.
This next one you are not going to like. As with most hardware tests, it will take a considerable time to run. Please run memtest86 for a minimum of 8 Passes. 8 passes is important.. Each pass is a slightly different set of 9 or 10 tests. Each pass tests a different part of the ram, so it takes 8 complete passes to run a complete test. Having said that, if you get an error anytime during the tests, stop the tests by pushing the escape key. Any error is a failure, no reason to keep running it.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask away. We do not mind answering questions or giving further instructions on what we have asked.
If at any time your computer fails to boot, disconnect at least 1 cable from every hard drive except the one with windows on it and run startup repair again up to 3 times with reboot attempts between each time you run it.
EDIT: while you are at the MSI web site, see if you can update any of the other drivers they have listed. Particularly the chipset driver and sata drivers.
