Will reinstalling Windows resolve the issue? It's unclear what you're referring to, but since it seems similar, I'll assume it relates to your Windows setup. If the second drive isn't affected, you can proceed with wiping it.

Fix the motherboard software, which may cause your games to run slower. I’m unsure why you need it or what you did with your system, but it seems to be the same issue. Choose the version you prefer and try installing it. If you want to erase the second drive, right-click its letter in Windows, select "Format," and choose the first option. This action is irreversible—all data will be lost permanently.

Since I first installed it, I've noticed framedrops appearing and removing it hasn't resolved the issue—I'm not alone in this. I'm also curious if adjusting the RGB settings will help, but I'm not sure if it can undo any changes. I just need to be certain the software is gone before proceeding.

Start by unplugging the second drive during Windows installation—it's not necessary for system files. The drive holds data, not essential info; once the SSD is set up, your HDD becomes just a storage device, regardless of programs. Clearing unwanted files will suffice.

If you encounter issues, share the details. Simply reinstalling the OS isn't the ideal solution; it often leads to temporary fixes rather than lasting results. This community can assist in identifying and resolving your problems.

Avoid reinstalling Windows if hardware concerns exist—it could worsen the situation. For instance, persistent BSODs linked to RAM might render the installation unusable. Now you have a functional system, which can aid in troubleshooting using tools like viewer or minidumps.

Remember, default BIOS settings aren't optimal. Resetting everything isn't the best approach. If you don’t use overclocking, BIOS settings should remain as they are (or not changed). They might influence USB detection, drive setup, speed modes, or external device configurations.

Default BIOS configurations are generally average—50/50 if you're new to BIOS tweaks. Changing them could either improve performance or erase useful settings. Focus on drivers first, especially framedrop issues, and consider updating NVidia drivers if needed. Leaving your system unchanged is usually safer than reinstalling.
