Here are some common issues and troubleshooting steps for Windows installation on AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) vs. Intel-based systems:

Common Issues

• BIOS/UEFI Settings:

– Ensure the system BIOS or UEFI is set to “Legacy Mode” in both AMD and Intel configurations.

• CPU Architecture Support:

– If the motherboard supports 64-bit architecture (e.g., Ryzen, EPYC), ensure that Windows Installation was installed on a 64-bit version of the operating system.

• System Requirements:

– Check if your system meets the minimum requirements for Windows installation on both AMD and Intel systems.

AMD-Exclusive Issues

• BIOS/UEFI Settings:

– Check to ensure that the “Secure Boot” is enabled in the BIOS settings, which can prevent Windows from installing.

• System Resources:

– Ensure the system has sufficient RAM (at least 4 GB for most desktop systems).

• Graphics Card Support:

– If you’re using an AMD graphics card (Radeon or NVIDIA), ensure it’s compatible with your system.

Intel-Exclusive Issues

• BIOS/UEFI Settings:

– Ensure that the system BIOS is set to “Secure Boot” in both AMD and Intel configurations.

• System Resources:

– Ensure sufficient RAM and storage are available (at least 8 GB of RAM).

• Graphics Card Support:

– Check if your Intel graphics card supports UHD or later.

Troubleshooting Steps

• Check Boot Order:

– Verify that the system boot order is set to prioritize the correct hard drive or solid-state drive (SSD) as the first device.

• Disable Secure Boot:

– Try booting with “Safe Mode” enabled in both AMD and Intel BIOS settings.

• Update Drivers:

– Ensure drivers are up-to-date for all hardware components, especially graphics cards and sound controllers.

• System File Checker (SFC):

– Run the System File Checker tool to scan and repair system files.

• Boot in Safe Mode:

– Enter Safe Mode by pressing F8 during boot and selecting “Safe Mode” under the Advanced Boot Options.

Additional Tips

• Check Motherboard Documentation: Verify that your motherboard’s specifications match the requirements for Windows installation on AMD or Intel systems.

• Contact Manufacturer Support: Reach out to the manufacturer of your system, motherboard, or CPU for specific guidance and support.

By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot common issues with Windows installation on both AMD- and Intel-based systems.
