Posted Today, 04:49 PM I installed a new Asus B760M motherboard and i3-13100 CPU.  I used my existing 16GB of DDR4 RAM and my Windows (10) drive (Samsung EVO M.2).  First boot into BIOS it recognized the CPU, RAM and Windows boot drive.  I made sure secure boot was enabled.  It rebooted into the BIOS safe mode.  I checked everything a rebooted again.  It booted into Windows after a couple false starts so I re-activated Windows and messed around for an hour or so with various apps (Excel, Outlook, Chrome, Firefox and a couple others.
