Bad motherboard or bad OS

Ok so i am new here and well i recently built a new computer this is the second time i have done so, however i have been plagued with problems from the start. I have fixed a few but one keeps coping up. This problem is that sometimes normally after my usb devices refuse to register with windows 7 my os will corrupt. I ask about the mother board because i have installed and repaired the os and had a shop do the same but still this persists. current blue screen erro is 0x00000 6b for a corrupt boot sector.

the specs are

Windows 7 home premium

Hello, Karcen. I see your having problems that i may be able to help you with. If i may ask you to restart your computer into The BIOS and tell me your settings, that would help alot. If you can't do that. Then please email me at [email removed] so we can talk. Thanks! ~ Charles

Is this original version of 7 without sp1 applied? Have you tried deleting the Bootcat.cache file?

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/981833

Also, do the following and post the logfile.

Download BlueScreenView
No installation required.
Unzip downloaded file and double click on BlueScreenView.exe file to run the program.
When scanning is done, go Edit>Select All.
Go File>Save Selected Items, and save the report as BSOD.txt.
Open BSOD.txt in Notepad, copy all content, and paste it into your next reply.

There's no reason to move it to private chat, let alone off the forum via email. That's some shoddy stuff dude.
Yes i understand we are supposed to keep conversation in the forum post. But it is alot easier to put it in PM because you get quicker notifications etc.

    Ok! Well sorry that you can't turn on your computer. But i will say its probaly A BIOS startup problem. If not try replacing your power supply.

    would the power supply cause the os to corrupt, i mean it turns on and powers up fine just after awhile it just goes corrupt?

    The reason i reccomend replacing your power supply is, the PS sends a encrypted message to the Motherboard and sometimes that will mess up or will corrupt.

    Now you may also want to buy a new motherboard just incase, becuase it could be the Motherboard screwing it up.

    Now, im not asking you to go spend money. but do check your graphics card. Or go and check that everything is fully plugged in. Ive had Black screening problems before because my motherboards connection was loose.

So does it power up and just not boot? You can easily rebuild the bootloader.

I'd also test your RAM, and even if it passes, replace it with known good RAM and see if you still have issues.
