Well I have made some progress today with this build and now gotten it to the point where it exhibits nearly the identical issue as described by jnmanocchio at the beginning of this thread. I was finally able to get the to the UEFI and configure things and get Windows 10 installed on the Intel 750 PCIe SSD drive. I was able to get Windows 10 partially configured and used the ASRock App Shop to install the latest updated Motherboard drivers for the Extreme 7+ board. Unfortunately, the machine now seems to freeze and hang when trying to install the Intel LAN drivers. Upon shutting down and powering back on, I receive the "00" Dr. Debug code again and then I shut down, remove power cord, replace power cord, restart and it POSTs normally. I thought that using the App Shop would be simpler than installing the drivers one by one from site, but I will be attempting to do this after I completely format the SSD and start over. I am not sure if their are driver issues from the OS causing this, but it is really strange to have the CPU "00" error when it freezes.

Slow progress on this build due to these issues, but hoping can identify what is creating the freeze. Normally I would think this is hardware related (e.g. memory or similar), but I do not receive any error codes from Dr. Debug that would indicate this, nor any from the OS. Windows 10 simply freezes about 30 seconds after completing boot.
Here is my build's parts reference:
- ASRock Z170 Extreme 7+ Motherboard
- Intel Core i7-6700K Processor
- G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB DDR4 3200 SDRAM
- Corsair RM 750x 750 Watt Power Supply
- Corsair H100i Liquid CPU Cooler
- Fractal Design Define R4 Case
- Intel 750 PCIe 400GB SSD Drive
- Zotac GeForce GTX 970 AMP! Extreme Core Edition GPU
- LG WH16NS40 Blu-ray Disc Rewriter
