    Win10 doesn't run, but with same HDD on other PC it does


    Hey together,
    so my problem is the following:
    My PC (the one I've listed under specs) has Windows 7 running on an SSD.
    My father has the exact same PC specs, just his GPU is a GTX 560 and he's got no SSD, but had Win7 running on a 1TB HDD.

    Now my father asked me to upgrade his PC to Win10, but it just didn't work, it always got a freeze somewhere throughout the installation, sometimes it went past the installation but freezed anyways after the Windows logo.
    I ran out of ideas and then unplugged my 2 HDDs and SSD, plugged my father's HDD into my PC and tried to install Win10 and to my surprise, it worked! I've set everything up and plugged it into my fathers PC again, and then it kept freezing again, sometimes showing the "It looks like Windows didn't load correctly" screen. Plugged it back into my PC, and there it worked again! For testing purposes I plugged my SSD with Win7 on it into my father's PC and it worked like a charm!

    I find this whole situation really odd and now im just confused and out of ideas.
    Any chance to get Win10 working on my fathers PC?
    Like i said, the only different part is our GPU, but its hard to believe this to be the root of the problem...

    :)

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    Hi Vijay,

    thanks for response. I tried your steps with a Google DNS and Open DNS - but it doesn´t help.

    The game still crashes in the moment I try to run it.

    I'll be glad for another solutions.
