This is an ASUS laptop. Not sure how I'd replace it. But, I have a question that may change your answer. Also recently, but before this started, my laptop began to boot only into BIOS and wouldn't recognize my SSD. Eventually it would work but this would happen from time to time. Now that something is going on with the GPU, could it be a problem with the motherboard? Edit. Also it never happens in games and the performance in games isn't bad.

Hello, I'm not sure the best way to describe this so I've attached a photo. This will happen on any app at random times. My laptop is an ASUS FX503VD. It just recently started doing this. Anyone know what's going on?

Okay will do thanks! And yes that's what appears to be happening. Sometimes it just doesn't boot into windows.

Hey all, so I've had this laptop for about a year and a half. It has an HDD and the boot drive is an m.2 SSD. Recently, I opened up my laptop and it took me straight to entering my password for BIOS. In BIOS, it only told me I had one drive, the HDD. Eventually, through just letting it sit and trying again, it booted into windows. Now, it will usually boot into windows fairly regularly but on occasion it will not recognize my SSD. Sometimes when I'm using the laptop, it will say "Oops something went wrong" and reboot. I was watching a video when this happened and the video audio did the "failing hard drive" stutter before it restarted. So my laptop has been pretty unreliable which is not ideal since I rely on this thing for school. I've Googled it and found some answers but some say it's a motherboard thing and others say it's the SSD. Some said it had to do with having a certain USB device plugged in but I've ruled that out. Anyone have any ideas on what I should do to get this laptop reliable again? P.S. Sometimes I'll be watching a video on YouTube and when I exit full screen to go to a new video the whole page is frozen even though I was watching a non frozen video. I can't exit out of my browser or anything. I only can restart.

I don't use google chrome. I use Brave browser. But it's really random. Sometimes it does fine. Right now it is doing fine but then suddenly it'll take a few seconds for the screen to catch up with what I am typing.

Hey all, I'm having troubles with my laptop. Lately it has been extremely laggy to the point where it takes a few seconds to right click on the desktop. I ran Malwarebytes and the scan came up clean. Following that I found the app Chromium (Malware?) had been installed. I'm not sure how it was installed but I removed it and deleted all files related to it. I'm still not sure what is slowing down this computer so much. It has an i7 and a 4GB GTX 1050. It is more powerful than my desktop PC yet it is much slower as it is right now. I've attached an image of my task manager. Even as I type this I have to wait for the words to catch up on the screen. Any help is very appreciated. I rely on his laptop for running Matlab and CAD software and these programs are almost unusable at the moment.

There's just a whole bunch of everything. I had this PC for 5 years with just the HDD.

Wasn't able to. The HDD had 800GB filled on it and the SSD is only 120GB.

Hey all, so I have a few questions. Recently I installed the non activated version of Windows 10 onto my 120GB SSD. I still have my hard drive installed with my old activated Windows 10 on it. So my questions are: 1. Is there a way to transfer that license to the Windows installed on my SSD? I don't have the key available. 2. After I started booting from my SSD, when I would search in the start menu for apps installed on HDD, nothing would show up and I would have to go into the Program Files to launch the application. Basically all of the files aren't recognized as files unless I go into file manager and manually find them. Is there a way to get around this? 3. What caused this problem is I wanted to open Excel (which is installed on the HDD) but I'm unable to because of a missing .dll file. So when I went to uninstall Microsoft Office, it wasn't in the list of programs I could uninstall since it is not on the SSD. So will I not be able to use Microsoft Office unless I activate the current Windows? I'm kind of considering just wiping all my drives and starting over but that would be a big headache with needing to reinstall 10-90GB programs.

Only works with Samsung SSD's unfortunately. Mine is Crucial.

Hey all, so I'm planning on installing a fresh copy of Windows onto my new SSD. I already have Windows installed on my current SSHD. I know that I can install it and run my PC just fine as long as it is the first boot priority in BIOS. My question is how can I wipe the Windows 10 from the SSHD after installing it on the SSD without losing all of my other files (Games, Programs, Etc.)? Is it possible to do that? I really would like to avoid losing all of my software since it is about 700GB of storage. Thanks in advance!

Hello all, This started popping up on whenever I restart or power on my PC. It started happening after I did a clean boot. Anyone know how to fix it?

So I changed the partitions on the ssd and I still get the same error message. What do I do?

So how do I transfer just windows then?

Hello all, I'm wondering what I am doing wrong here. I want to boot up windows through my 120GB ssd and it says there is not enough space. Is Windows 10 really over 120GB or am I doing something wrong?
