    Windows 10 crashes on startup but only sometimes


    I have been having this reoccurring issue over the past year where the PC I have will randomly not be able to turn fully on. It will attempt to boot up and get to the loading screen or login screen but then crash and try again. I can get to the recovery screen so I can access terminal and the startup repairs. Occasionally after this issue pops up I will be able to open the computer and run everything without any issues. Only when I turn on the computer does it happen, it does not crash when it is on. I thought that it might be the HDD that caused the issue so I removed it, but the issue persists. I don't think my graphics card is the issue as I am able to play high stress games without issue. Does anyone know what part could cause this and if there is a way to use the command prompt to find the error logs?

    :)

    Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

    I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
