ight that works thank you for keeping it short and sweet

ok that was kinda my original volume so nothing weird will happen having 2 storage devices with windows 10 running?

while windows is running...? forgive me but im not knowledgeable in this part

i mean clear it so theres nothing on no windows nothing i dont care about anything on it i just need it for bulk as the SSD is 250Gb

Short version i bought an SSD and im not sure how to clear the hard drive or at least the least painful LEAST headache inducing way

i will try quoting the topic in a day or 2 before reporting

when is hard to say its random every other day i cant pin it to any one thing sometimes im just watching YouTube another while playing a game... but its all the same it just freezes no stutter no blue screen still picture and if audio is playing its just a rapid annoying loop like literally an xbox one freezing during gameplay ive checked the event viewer for critical failures but nothing shows up not even the windows 10 repair after hitting restart it just pretends nothing happened (i do hope im making sense im trying to word it best i can)

Yes it didn't seem to have much of an effect

im running the current EVGA driver 417.35

yes and yes just updated the original post but i can go check for another update

Im at my wits end my computer when in use (obviously) keeps locking up and freezing with no obvious repeatable offense causing it (like an Xbox one game rapid repeating annoying sound and still picture) and i have no idea how to fix this issue EDIT My idiocy i forgot system info Ryzen 3 2200G Board manual Overclocked to 3.75GHZ EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 FTW no change 16gb G Skill Ripjaws V 2x8gb

alright i have both afterburner and XOC

I was thinking about exploring overclocking a little more but i have no clue what to do or how to do it right so any useful tips pointers the like are very appreciated.

I know its been awhile but the problem fixed itself after switching out the A6-9500 for the intended ryzen 3 2200g it now boots up normally no weird stuff at all

Yup no matter how its shutdown unless its from a restart
