Windows 10: Windows 10 Settings Instantly Crashes

Hello.


So long story short, my new gaming laptop arrived this morning. First thing I did once powering up was install windows updates. It installed a long list of updates and asked to restart like normal. When it booted back up I tried to check if there were any more updates but when trying to open the settings app it just closed instantly.


I've spent 8 hours today trying about 20 different possible solutions from google/Microsoft live chat and nothing has worked.


Please feel free to offer a solution and I'll try it again and let you know what happens/doesn't happen.


Cheers.

:)

 

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
