Windows 10: SSD Upgrade, now I'm getting freezing, CRC Errors, slow boot up, etc

I installed a 2TB NVME drive in my laptop, replacing the one that it came with. It was bigger faster and brand new. Anyways installation was simple enough, before I bought it I created a USB Drive installer using Windows Media Creation Tool. Took off the back of my laptop, removed the old SSD, put in the new SSD, put the back back on, put the USB Drive in and turned it on. I installed a fresh copy of Windows 10, everything seemed fine, I was reinstalling all my stuff when it froze. I powered it off restarted and continued. I installed updates, it froze when restarting. I did SFC, it could do i

CRC errors always

this is what I tried so far
tried download and extract on a 2nd installed windows (I have dual boot) and its same CRC error
tried another non built-in LAN card pci-E x1 and its the same CRC error
tried restore bios to default and its same CRC error
tried putting a laptop on the same line instead of my PC and it works no errors no problems


i have no idea what to do ? it was working before no errors no problems I don't know what happened ??

 

CRC error

Ta for the links. I know why the CRC error occurs, but not how to get around it. to quote from the 2nd link: "If you encounter a CRC check error then either your program has changed or you are running a different version of ShareGuard Lock. There are 2 different CRC checks. The most common problem that you will encounter is the CRC error when you modify your program executable. ShareGuard actually records the original CRC of your file. NOTE: This only happens if you set the CRC check on in ShareGuard Locksmith. The loading of the CRC DLL is for checking the CRC of the ShareGuard Lock program. This CRC is always dynamically computed when you generate your parameters. If you receive a CRC error then just reset the Product Id from the Tools page of the ShareGuard Locksmith. The ShareGuard Lock will then automatically re-compute a new CRC for your program. This CRC value will always be enforced until you reset the Product Id. This is something that your customers cannot do but protects your software from cracking. You will always create a new product id so that a new CRC value will be computed for your next version release."

Looks like I might have to make my own installer as well *Bang Head :banghead:

 

SSD stops and freezes laptop

Couple of updates:

1. I created a Linux boot USB key, and monitored my SSD under Linux, so this is evidently not a Windows issue, and
2. I loaded new firmware for the SSD, and my system seems to be functioning normally now. What a pleasure using a PC that doesn't consistently freeze up.

Thanks to all y'all for your suggestions!
