Windows 8.1 boot to black screen of nothingness....

Hello people,

I thought it was about time to upgrade to win8.1. So I got myself a copy and installed it. All was going well
until I got to the initial profile set up (pc name, user name and so forth) and it crashed. After getting onto the
desktop after a few more crashes I started to install the English language pack. Oh yeah I live in Japan so its a Japanese
copy. The install got about half way through and crashed again.

After this Every time the pc boots it boots to a black screen after the win logo. The PC is then bricked and does nothing
until it is manually reset/turned off. I can get into safe mode but not safe mode with networking. After reset sometimes
it goes to the win failed boot menu. But again after reset the boot fails.

So what have i tried.

1. Reseting and refreshing system. (x)
2. Reinstalling (x)
3. changing bio boot settings (x)
4. bootrec /fixmbr with working USB recovery drive (x)
5. renaming the System and Software registry hives to System.001 and Software.001 (x)
6. Disabling/deleting graphics drivers (x)
7. Installing new graphics drivers (x)
8. Booting system with one stick of RAM. To check if RAM works and if its a RAM problem (x)
9. Banging head against a wall (x)
10. Screaming (x)
11. Phoning M$ only to be told that i need to pay for one on one help and then being hung up on (x)

I really don't know what else to try. Please can someone help me!!!!!

System:
intel i7 -3930K (3.2GHz) 12MB Cache
ASUS® SABERTOOTH X79: SOCKET 2011, R.O.G
16GB KINGSTON HYPERX GENESIS QUAD-DDR3 1600MHz X.M.P(4 x 4GB KIT)
4GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 690 DUAL GPU - 3 x DVI-I, 1 x mDP
2TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s HDD 7200RPM 64MB CACHE

 

Funny you say that......Yes I'm not far lol.

 

Yeah fresh install from win7 to win8.1. Even spoke to a guy from pc specialist, who when I reinstalled walked me through it. Did the same things I did before.
same old same old.
I feel kinda pissed as the same DVD it working fine on my Mac bootcamp. But not on my PC build for bloody windows.

 

Ok done, But nothing has changed. Still the same problem. No anitvirus software is installed at the moment.

 

I do not but i have disabled the GPU and installed new drivers and also deleted it. Still nothing.

 

Once booted into safe mode what do I do?

 

The nvidia drivers for the 690 are compatible with win8.1 and are already installed from safe mode. Still no change. Plus in safe mode I can't use the Internet or boot in safe mode with network

 

Sorry I must be being stupid. Could you be a little more specific to where and what info you need to me get?
But thank you for the help. As you can probably tell I'm a little frustrated

 

Thanks for all your help. No idea how i will fix really don't want to spend money on another 690
