Thank you for your help

I'm glad you have Windows 10 installed, but I don't understand exactly what happened. The iGPU in your APU processor was apparently bad, which was causing the restart of the Windows installation when the generic Windows video driver was being installed?

But otherwise the iGPU worked in the UEFI/BIOS, or with a Windows installation done on an Intel laptop. Confused  Still seems to be a mystery to me.



Im not sure what happened :S  but with the intel based windows running, the  generic windows video driver was installed on the IGPU R7 but soon as i try to install the AMD driver it just restarts and thank you for your help and efforts, im happy to get it sorted :D
Thanks

The default (Auto) value of IOMMU is Disabled. That is shown in the manual of the AB350M Pro4, North Bridge Configuration screen.

It sounds like you had IOMMU enabled while you were attempting to install Windows, as you said you were able to enable it again after the installation.

K3LVIN_93, I would suggest at least 650 Watts if you can swing it.  Enjoy, John.

Thanks, parsec.  I have seen a number of things work that should not have.  Perhaps K3LV1N_93 should tell us what he is DLing from MS and we can check the hash codes.  Does the video card being used draw much power?  500 watts seems weak to me.  I just DLed the MB manual and see that the MB does not have a 4-pin CPU power connector - guess I should stop asking about it.  Will wait and see what transpires.  Enjoy, John.

Ok, i will upgrade the psu as soon as i can but will an 600w will work fine?

og_reborn, you have told us nothing about your system.  Turning off IOMMU is to allow installing RS1 W10 on Threadripper which only supports RS2 and higher.  If you used the media creator from MS and got the latest W10, this is not your problem and turning off IOMMU should not help.  From Wikipedia (RS is Redstone).
