    Not able to install 64 bit windows 10 (32 bit installs correctly)


    Hi,

    I have recently built a computer. My system configuration is

    CPU - Ryzen 3 3100
    Motherboard - Asus A320M-K (I updated it to latest bios version 5603)
    GPU - Zotac 1660 super AMP
    RAM - G-Skill Ripjaws 2 * 8 GB 3200MHz
    HDD - WD 1 TB 7200 rpm
    PSU - Corsair CV450

    In bios, I am able to see all my components. I have disabled fast boot and secure boot. CSM is enabled.

    I am trying to install window 10 from a USB (created using media creation tool as well as Rufus). It boots into the USB, loader completes half circle and then it goes back to black screen and everything starts again (video added). I tried installing 32-bit windows 10, and it is getting installed correctly. Same thing happens with Ubuntu as well. I tried Ubuntu LTS versions 20, 18, 16 (all 64-bits), I got AMD-vi connection timed out exception (screenshot added). I was able to install 32 bit Ubuntu 16.

    My bios setting when installing was: disabled secure boot and fast boot. Tried CSM with all possible settings (enabled, disabled, auto).

    Also, I disconnected hdd from system, and I am able to see windows setup. But not able to proceed as HDD is missing. Am I missing some SATA related setting in BIOS?

    Can anyone please help me in identifying issue?

    I do not have the answer to your problem but from your specs of your build I would of went with a better brand power supply and more wattage as your gpu requires 450 watt supply. Should of gone to a 550 watt supply. Power supply is the heart of the system.

    I had calculated total wattage required on pcpartpicker and it suggested 450Watts. I was planning for cx series, but it was not in stock. I am not going to upgrade now, but maybe in 2 years I will upgrade this. Which brand/series do you recommend for power supply?

    In your BIOS, go to the exit menu and load optimized defaults. Also under the Advanced Menu, probably CPU configuration, there is a setting for virtualization, mine is called SVM, make sure that is enabled.

    EVGA power supplies are one of the best

    Yes, they are

    But I suppose because of your location, you`ll have to take what you can get.
