I have the following setups.

System #1

ASUS 990FX Sabertooth Motherboard (Rev 1)

AMD FX-8150 CPU

16 GB DDR3 RAM

EVGA NVidia GT 1030 Video card (PCIe)

1 TB SSD

and

System #2

ASUS P8-z77-V Motherboard

i5 3570K CPU

Intel Integrated Video (onboard)

8 GB RAM

1 TB SSD


Both have HDMI outputs, and a DVD player/reader


Both had Win7 Ultimate installed with the latest Win7 drivers. Cloned the boot drive to an SSD in both systems. Booted the SSD in Win 7 on both systems. Then tried to install Win 10 off of the Win 10 (1903 build).


Install process:


1) Boot on Win 7, Click Setup.exe on installation media.


2) Win 10 install starts


3) System went through entire Win 10 (1903) install.


4) On Win 10 Boot it shows the Welcome screen where my Name appears in the upper left, and "NEXT' appears in the lower right of the screen. I can't select anything. Mouse does not work. Keyboard sort of works. Can hit return and screen refreshes, but does not move to 'next' screen. So USB seems intermittent and unusable.


The keyboard and mouse work perfectly under Win7 and in the UEFI Bios. Only on a Win 10 fresh install boot is there a problem.


This happens on both systems with different install media. System #1 from a Flash drive and #2 from a DVD. Both are the Win 10 (1903 build)


The only item that is the same is these system were purchase in 2012 and 2013 respectively.
