Hey,
I’ve recently completed a build, it powers up, I’ve installed windows and everything looked good so far, but when I try to install drivers or software the computer won’t let me (either the .exe does nothing, or I get a black screen and the system restarts or worst case scenario I face a WHEA uncorrectable error BSOD). I occasionally get stuck in a boot loop resulting in the “Recovery” screen, and the system seems to take its time booting up (far slower than it should be).
The strange thing is I’ve been able to download Steam, install a game a play it for multiple hours without issue... but doing any basic tasks like browsing the net, email, Spotify etc etc and it encounters the same issues as trying to install stuff... tbh I’ve reached a point where I’m that sick of it I’d happily just throw it in the bin.
Anyone have any idea what could be going wrong? Unfortunately I don’t have a second system so I can’t test any components individually and my knowledge is “limited” when it comes to solving errors.
Thanks,
M
