Windows 10: Consistent Issues

I've been having a few issues for quite a long time now

Here are my specs



Windows 10 Pro

AMD FX-8370 4.33 GHz

Nvidia GTX 970

16GB DDR3 Ram

and I boot off a Samsung 860 EVO 500gb SSD



For the past few months I've been having easily two bluescreens a day. After about two they don't occur again until I turn my pc back on the next day. They'll happen in game or while browsing the internet. My drivers are up to date

The second Issue I'm having started this week. Most application are running very sluggish and not respond frequently. I can temporarily fix this by rebooting, however the longer I have my PC on, the worse it gets. I find myself having to reboot at least 5 times a day, two of them being from bluescreens For example I'll launch Chrome and nothing will happen. The process is listed in task manager and nothing happens if I click end task. This also happens with other apps like Steam, Discord and Spotify occasionally.

I have Malwarebytes and CCleaner and did full scans/cleanups with those and nothing changed or noticed.

I'll gladly post more info if needed, thanks.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

Optical Drive Issue

Hello Anak –

Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

What do you think?
