    New windows 10 PC keeps locking up or BSOD


    so I've just finished building my brand bew gaming PC and it j

    Keeps locking up or BSODing.

    The bsod error is "CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT"

    It happens when I'm just sitting on desktop.

    The biggest problem is that it happens before I can finish any windows updates so I can't even just update


    Specs are


    CPU - Ryzen 5 3600

    MB - MSI MAG B550M MORTAR wifi

    RAM - 16g 3600

    SSD - Samsung 870

    GPU - Galax geforce 1060


    At this point I'm all out of ideas.

    I've been at it for three days and I'm so fed up with it.

    I need some help please!

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
