Daily challenge, new issue here
Hey there! It sounds like you're dealing with a pretty tricky situation. The fact that you've already run diagnostics and reinstalled from cloud suggests the problem might be related to your system files or hardware. Since you're still experiencing freezes and boot issues, it could be a sign of corruption or instability. You might want to check your RAM for errors or consider running a more thorough disk scan. If the issue persists, it could also point to a failing hard drive or other hardware concerns.
Windows files may become damaged for various reasons like power loss, surges, crashes, version mismatches, or update issues. In your situation, a corrupted or missing game file could be the main culprit, easily causing game failures. A faulty hard disk might also play a role. You ran Memtest86 without any errors, which suggests hardware isn’t the issue. Outdated or corrupted drivers could trigger crashes during gaming. It’s unclear if this fully addresses your concern.
I'm using AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition to maintain drivers (Ryzen CPU and AMD GPU). Windows is current. My setup has only one SSD M2 in the PC. Everything works fine on pcpartpicker.com. The issue only appears occasionally—sometimes for days, sometimes just once a week. It happened twice recently. To fix the freeze, I need to reinstall Windows again until it occurs again. Specifics: Windows 11 PRO, AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D, NZXT C-Series C750, PSU NZXT Kraken X63, Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD M.2 1TB, ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F, gaming graphics cards, Corsair vengeance RGB, DDR4 3200MHz, 16GB sticks. How can I identify the problem?
Some firmware problems have been reported for your particular SSD, which Samsung is also informed about. To investigate further, consider restarting with another drive. More details are available here: https://nascompares.com/2023/02/02/samsu...ow-so-far/
Sure, I can suggest a few GPU stress test programs. Some popular options include AIDA64, Prime95, and FurMark.
