Windows 10: Windows Crashed, Can't Reboot

Hello, I'm sure there are many threads of this sort, but I am new to Windows so I desperate for help. I recently purchased a custom built computer from a coworker with Windows 10 already loaded. It's been working perfectly for a month, however last night it crashed all the sudden. It attempted to automatically repair but was unable to so I began to try the advanced repair options but none seemed to work. I couldn't go back to previous restore state, I couldn't do a full reset and I couldn't even repair using the command prompt and some commands that I had found via Google search. There doesn't seem to be anything else to try please let me know if you have experienced something similar and figured out a solution.

Best,

:)

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?
