SSD Freezing my pc
SSD Freezing my pc
I have now refreshed all drivers from their manufacturer sites. I took out the Wi-Fi card and the sound card since it’s possible PCIe lanes were involved, possibly due to the GPU being too powerful for the CPU, motherboard, and power supply unit. Now I’m left with just the GPU, SSD, and two HDDs, along with the CPU and memory. I didn’t update the BIOS because of all the warnings I’ve heard, and I’m not very experienced yet, so I’m holding off unless something breaks. I ran memtest86 through all four passes, which took about ten hours and found no errors, so it’s unclear if that was helpful or not. My next step is to just use the PC and see how it performs.
It has been several days without any issues, so I think it's safe to say the driver installation from the manufacturers went well. Thanks for your assistance!
