Windows 10: Welcome screen hangs

I have the dreaded Welcome Screen hangs problem.
So this is the second time this has happened to me.
Last time I thought it was because my Microsoft account I was using as a login account had gone corrupt.
So I created a new local account profile and transferred all the data.
It was ok for a while but now all of the sudden about 4 hours into the day it needed a reboot because my webcam sometimes stops working.

So all of the sudden my user account hangs.

Luckily I can still login as admin.
So this is the second time I've had my user account that I use for everything; personal and work has stuck at the welcome screen and I think corrupt.
I really don't want to go through transferring all of my data again.
Also, all of my system restore points are gone which is wierd.

So I can log into one account, admin, but the other, myUserAccount.

Any idea what causes this?

I'm in the middle of doing windows updates but I doubt that will do anything.
Next thing to try, unplug all USB devices and try to reboot. I read this somewhere.

HD 2600XT Hangs and Crashes

I can probably play cod4 or any other game really for about 45-60 minutes before my system hangs and my card crashes and my screen goes blank, i know its only my card because my system doesnt restart, my card fan stops running on full from its riva override, and soon thereafter my screen comes back on in 800x600 and i cant access the card's drivers to change the res or anything, so when it hangs and crashes i just resort to manually restarting.

one thing i think i could try is to bite the bit and install the latest drivers, i've been holding off on that.

but if there's anything else anyone can think of, or if someone has had the same problem as me. go for it and give me some suggestions.

in before buy the 4870. (already on my wish list)
