  2. My PC with windows 10 runs slowly and freezes a lot.

    Hi,

    Kindly follow the methods below nd check if it works:

    Method 1: I suggest you to run
    System Maintenance troubleshooter and check if the issue persist.


    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Troubleshooting and select the top most search result.

    • Select View all from the left side panel of the window.

    • Select System Maintenance from the listed options, click on
      Advanced option and check Apply repairs automatically
      option.

    • Follow the on screen instructions.

    Method 2: If the issue persists, I suggest you to check if similar issue persists in
    Safe mode.

    Step 1: Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that starts your computer with limited drivers necessary to run Windows. The words
    Safe Mode appear at the corners of your monitor to identify which Windows mode you are using.

    Expand the options to boot into Safe Mode:

    To exit from Safe mode follow the steps below:


    • Open Run command by pressing
      Windows key + R
      on the keyboard and type msconfig in the command box.

    • Under Boot tab uncheck the
      Safe boot
      option.

    • Reboot the system and check if the changes are effective.

    Step 2: If the issue does not persist in Safe mode, I suggest you to uninstall any third party software installed on your PC like anti-virus software, computer cleaner software, etc. and check if the issue is resolved.

    Disclaimer: Antivirus
    software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done.
    If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Hope this helps.

  3. 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??
