Any home built computer project is a challenge. Even experienced builders find they come across unexpected problems.
With a manufactured product you have a certain amount of time to test it and be satisfied that it meets with the manufacturers specifications.
So, at this point let's put it this way.
Do you really enjoy building computers and trying new things?
Or would you rather play games and be entertained with programs and systems that of other people put together for you?
Now  ten, if you answered yes to the first question, you will find many, many people here eager to help you resolve the issue at hand. However, they will ask you to try to be very clear and concise in explaining what should have already tried. Most likely, your choice of hardware it is all right. The difficulty lies with the installation of your software and that the appropriate drivers.
So please try to be as clear as possible.
