one of two things first go into BIOS and check that your hard drive is in the boot order. if not either your motherboard, or more likly your hard drive is FUBAR

i bought this mobo like 2 weeks ago but my HDD is like 6yrs old

Well check the boot order but yes that is likely the problem

1st priority is HDD
2nd is CDDVD
3rd is UEFI CDDVD
Now what should i check ?

Nope its deffintly your hard drive but if you want to confirm it donload this http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalDiskInfo/index-e.html on a working computer plug in your hard drive, and then run it on the disk

Well, how many bad sectors did it show, and what is the make of the HDD?

 

[Vi Abrol]

is it enough to have an 64GB SSD for OS to work fine ?

is it enough to have an 64GB SSD for OS to work fine ?

Yes, windows will run as long as there is enough space for the windows OS, that is 6.6 GB for windows 8/8.1 32-bit, and 8.2 GB for windows 8/8.1 64-bit. However, this problem looks like a failing HDD, or a malfunctioning motherboard (though this is less likely). Can you please install the free trial of this program:

and then run an error scan, like this:

click the 'start' button to start the error scan

Then post a screenshot of the result here , or just simply post and tell us the percentage of damaged sectors.
