Hi all
So I've been having an issue when playing games i have been getting random freezes, game locks up, i can alt/tab to desktop but eventually have to reboot the machine as everything starts to get slow and sucky.
After a few of these i did notice accessing my D drive (the Sam 970 500gb NVMe M.2 Evo) that it would refuse to access it as if it wasn't there?
I also have all of my document folders (music, pictures, desktop) on the same drive and have never had an issue with accessing them, i only have this freeze issue while playing games?
Did a fresh install of W10 and same thing.
I have now move all game files to my C drive and removed the Sam Evo and I'm still testing so far as sometimes i could play games for a week with out an issue, then freeze ...... So i guess i will just keep testing for now.
Question is are there any crucial settings in the bios i need to have for the M.2 card? and maybe is there a way to test it to know if it has an issue?
System spec:-
8700k (not clocked atm)
Asus ROG Z370-F
Kingston DDR4 1066 2x4gb
Evga 1070
Samsung PM961 M.2 (128gb) C drive
Samsung 970 NVMe M.2 Evo (500gb) D drive
Seasonic 760w Psu
