I’ve owned this PC from cyber power PC’s at Best Buy since April or May 2020. It’s been around for about five years now. Upgrading to a GeForce 3070ti and a Ryzen 9 CPU didn’t go well, so I ended up handing it over to a local mom-and-pop shop after failing the upgrade. When I brought it back, it was even slower—and still not ideal. Now it works just fine, but it’s still not perfect. I’ve been having trouble with simple game updates; sometimes it takes around two hours for a 2GB update, even though my internet is super fast. It feels like something in the BIOS might be causing issues, but I’m not sure what’s going on. I just want to fix it and get back to playing games smoothly. Any suggestions?

Have you ever restored Windows by downloading it from a USB drive recently?

The system specifications include a specific PSU, RAM configuration, storage type, motherboard, CPU model, and more. Temperatures remain stable across usage, and performance varies depending on settings. There are no obvious signs of crashes; the system operates consistently.

I’ve experienced losing numerous games and apps, such as paying for Minecraft only to have them removed from my account. I wasn’t clear on how to demonstrate ownership.
