want ask - chg mobo -> install window back using build v1511 (nov) ->activate back using win 8.1 pro key = profit?

also, changing mobo will force user to re-install/format window again? last time i did this is during win 7 era...which i need to format and reinstall back window on my C drive

ish, need to backup my things on C drive then. especially game save files

better to save the local files as well
i switch to another mobo - asus z87 to asus z97, and no format is required. just plug and play.
but now face problem of window not responding - mouse moveable but program and others can't launch.

guess i'll reformat it anyhow incase previous mobo driver got conflict which caused this.

so, yesterday night i reformat my pc with UEFI - GPT. everything done smoothly and quickly, but after 3rd/4th time restart pc, i came into Infinite Loop of Repair screen.

nothing i done can get me into the window......any advise? else,i'll just reformat it again but from googling, it point to window update/AMD driver and i'm afraid i'll just crash into this problem again after format.

and, how can i set in uefi to ignore other HDD/USB during boot-up so that it just check with SSD/boot disk?
experiencing slow POST - 1min+ before getting into bios or window logo = asus z97 gryphon

i think its on the HDD side as the POST LED lit up at there. asking AsusMy for workaround

Just realize that one of the (dunno) updates automatically move all Documents file (from local) into OneDrive.
gosh, how i hate M$$ force us to use their software. this doesn't even prompt to ask user to move the files anot.

*note:Documents under user = mostly game save files & etc.
