How to connect 15-17 Fans Corsair Obsidian 900d

[EnthusiastBuild]

hey guys, its me again!

i finally built my first pc and everything more or less went flawlessly

i bought a windows 8 cd and now guess what, when i try to install it it says your pc ran into a problem bla bla bla and it restarts! i cant even install it, does anyone know what to do? i didnt find anything on google, this makes me crazy ...

for Win install, make sure BIOS has NO overclock settings; also do not hook everything up, keep to a minimum : primary drive (HD or SSD), Optical drive (cd/dvd/bd-reader) and only ONE GPU if going SLI and also do not fill all memory banks
Wininstall most likely stumbles over SLI or "bad" memory.
Once Win install happy, then you can start adding the "missing" hardware.

Unless you are trying to install an "upgrade" version with no eligible upgrade path....
Tell us the exact error

List your hardware please.

Can you see the hard drive / SSD in the BIOS? Is it set as the first hard drive?

Run memtest86.

Run memtest86.

What makes you believe there is a memory error (that wasn't there before)?

 

[NiHaoMike]

That's what should be done on new hardware in order to rule out issues.

Make sure the SSD is in AHCI mode.

How did the 15 fans work out? I'd like to see pics of that. That would be about 7A * 12V
(84 Watts of power dissipated). Some of that as heat, right into your case.
