Windows 10: Pc lagging no matter what I do

For the last few months my pc became corrupted so I ran all DISM commands in hopes of fixing it. It worked temporary but everytime I restart my pc it goes back to being slow. Recently I've been getting issues when loading it up. Taking over 10 minutes to fully load from the start screen to the main pc. I have also had a big issue with every app constantly hanging and closing on itself. Even search.exe or something hangs. Taskbar also becomes unresponsive lots of times. I have even re-downloaded windows 11 using the USB but I get corrupted files everytime. I have tons of errors from event viewe

Video starts lagging no matter the format - RAM usage error?

I’m having trouble with any form of video playback on my machine no matter if it’s played with VLC or HTML5 webvideo (Youtube) via Firefox or Edge. The preview video in Adobe Premiere is also affected.

In all cases the video starts lagging (picture and sound) after a while of opening and playing several different videos or after working some time in Premiere. I thought I had narrowed the problem down to a RAM issue but apparently, I was a victim of spurious correlation:

My machine had 16 GB RAM and the video started lagging whenever RAM usage was approaching 8 GB or RAM. I figured that the RAM was defective and although tests did not confirm this I changed all RAM blocks and increased RAM to 32 GB. However, the problem persists. Whenever task manager shows 10-11 GB of RAM usage videos start lagging. As soon as the RAM usage drops bellow these values video playback is back to normal.

I have also kept an eye on video memory. But this does not seem to be an issue as the video starts lagging no matter if video memory is used by 10 or 90%.

I am really at a loss of ideas what else I should try or check. Any suggestions?

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
