Hi

I have a B560m Steel legend partnered with an i5-11400 and it boots to BIOS just fine eveytime.
When i try to install windows with the bootable USB however it only shows the Asrock logo and a spinning wheel forever.
I followed the instructions perfectly to make the USB so i don't think its a problem there and i even used the old windows 7 usb i used years ago on my old pc and that let me select the language at least before giving me a spinning wheel of death.

I have also updated the bios from 1.2 to 1.8 but that made no change.

Feel like im going crazy because theyre all new components and should work!

Hello,

did you try the support form
https://event.asrock.com/tsd.asp" rel="nofollow - https://event.asrock.com/tsd.asp
When using gmail, check the spam folder for replies.
1. Windows 7 cannot be installed on this board, or as a matter of fact, on any of the recent Intel and AMD boards, because it uses a USB HID protocol, that is not supported under Windows 7, you get to the stage where you see keyboard layout and language, then the USB ports stop working.
2. When installing Windows 10, or 11, you don't have to make the USB stick bootable, simply google for Media Creation Tool, download the tool for Windows 10 or 11, and let the tool create the USB stick for you.
In BIOS set CSM, to disabled, then save and exit, and press f11 during boot, to get into the boot menu, and select the UEFI device.
The slow spinning circle, can also mean that some hardware is having problems. try with only the drive connected where you want to install Windows


-------------
Kind Regards

Hi,

I have the similar isuue with my ASRock Motherboard, I have an ASRock H61M-VS, when I try to install Windows 10 via USB port it shows the logo Windows and the Rotating Wheel, immediately the motherboard reboot and it aborts the installation.

I updated the bios and the problem is the same. I tried 2 or 3 different USB devices and there's no improvement in the problem either. I tried to install BlissOS Operating System and the result is the same, the motherboard reboots.

If you have any ideas to improve the problem and avoid the motherboard rebooting, I would appreciate your comment and support.

Regards

Why do I use USB according to your program but on Windows 10 and there are absolutely no errors? So could it be due to the software structure you are using?
