I recently got a new motherboard after my old one died, so I put the SSD in (which is in my signature), and I installed Windows 7 and the motherboard drivers. The OS and driver installation was successful, but after that, the computer kept restarting randomly and then displaying the black screen telling me that it had an unexpected shutdown and asking me what I want to do, like boot into Windows normally etc (it has never given me a BSOD). The computer won't run for more than 10 minutes without restarting.
I formatted the drive again and installed the OS and motherboard drivers again from the same discs, and had the same problem.
I formatted the drive again and installed Linux Mint on it and it worked 100% fine. No restarts, no problems.
I put a HDD in the computer and installed Windows 7 and motherboard drivers off the same discs, and it works fine.
Why does it work perfectly fine with Linux Mint, but not Windows 7? Keep in mind I installed EXACTLY the same OS and drivers off the same disc each time.
