You need to do a clean install of the OS dude, making sure to set the sata controllers to ACHI mode in the bios. If you have files on the HDD you want to save, then hook it to another pc or laptop/ external HDD and transfer the files over, then you can transfer them back once you are done setting up the new build. Reason for BSOD is likely all the old drivers for your previous hardware don't like the new hardware, kinda hard to work around unless you can clean them out in safemode, then install all the new drivers from the discs that come with the new mobo...
Se my sata controller to Achi and loaded it up with crossed fingers it worked! Mint! Happy year cheers for the advice anyways
