All 3 harddrives, I literally just took out the old MB and put in my new 990fx. Every component is the same but the motherboard.

Do you think I should reinstall windows 8 and then upgrade to windows 10 again?

And sorry if I am rushing a bit. I sort of got this motherboard last year and just got it fixed. It has been a long journey.

Um yea. A fresh OS install is in order.

Do the OS install with only the drive you want Windows installed to connected. Then afterwards you're safe to reconnect the remainders.

I'm turning in for the night so won't see any updates till morning. Good luck.

I have been trying to downgrade to windows 8 for a bit now, no luck. When running the installation disk at boot up it told me to go start my computer normally and run the disk in windows. When running the disk in windows it says "Setup has failed to determine supported installation locations"
I am going to try a custom windows installation from bootup.

Do you have an OS install disk that you can do a fresh install with? Do you have all your User data backed up to a different drive?

Disconnect all the other drives EXCEPT the one you want Windows to install to.

I have finally set it up to where my pc has windows 8 (freshly loaded). i am not installing any of my older files from my other HDD till I have my wireless internet adapter working. Which is still is not. I am going to put my gpu into the other 16x slot and see if it will work now. I still have my pcie x1 in my 16x and it is not working still.
