Deadly combo

I have a PC which boots till windows logo and reboots. Window7 64 bit.
We tried system restore, but it fails replacing a part of the AVG antivirus.
During the troubleshooting process the MoBo died. Now I have the harddrive and am trying to install it in another PC, but am still running in the same reboot issue, after which it tries to repair without succes.

Any idea how to proceed without reinstalling?

Kind regards,

Rick

Personally, with all of these issues, I think a reinstall would be best for the long-term. I know it "takes longer" *now* but it will most likely save more time later!

That said ... does any flavor of Safe Mode work?

@Ni8vel, Nope. It does not boot in safe mode.

If it is a laptop SATA HD buy one of these SATA to USB cable and grab your data it form it and start over with a new PC. https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-SATA-USB-Cable-USB3S2SAT3CB/dp/B00HJZJI84/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=sata+to+usb&qid=1565278256&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzNUtBNlZJVEREN05QJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwODQ0MTQ0Mk1GTlQ3WFEzWUc1NyZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwMDYzNjQ5M0RUSFFHTERVNU5IWCZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
