I was not the one doing the fresh install, it was the repair shop I brought the PC to. If I'm to trust them I assume that they did follow correct procedure (The SSD has no partitions, that I can tell you) I know that they reinstalled using the official Windows 10 method, since they asked me if my copy was legit and insisted the reinstall would not work without a legit copy. Can't tell about the HDD having been unplugged or not, is there any way to check?

After having Windows 10 reinstalled as part of a repair process in a PCBox repair store, my PC is slow enough to be almost unusable. These are my specs: OS: Windows 10 Version 1903 Build 18362.418 MB: 970 GAMING (MS-7693) CPU: AMD FT(tm) - 8350 Eight-Core Processor, 4200Mhz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 RAM: 1x8GB 2x4GB SSD: One 250GB SSD where the OS and little more is installed. HDD: One 1TB HDD where the rest of programs and files are. The PC worked perfectly before taking it to the repair store, except for the monitors losing video from time to time. I took it there to have that problem fixed, and two days later I received it back. Supposedly they simply fixed a faulty connector and did a fresh reinstall of Windows 10 on my C drive (The SSD). The video problem is gone, but since then the PC is completely unusable. I've read that after a fresh install you need to give windows time to reinstall updates and everything, and like the ignorant caveman that I am I decided to leave it on for a whole day and night, around 26 hours in total, and then restart it to see if that fixed the problem. Of course, it didn't. The PC is still slow, to the point where while I was able to play games like Arkham Knight perfectly well with videos, spotify, or discord in the background, sometimes leaving a MOBA open by accident while starting another game and not even noticing it, now I'm having problems running Streets of Rogue alone. Windows Explorer lags, this forum takes almost thirty seconds to load, and as I am writing this the text lags and freezes. I've tried a few things people have recommended me, like disabling heavy programs at startup, activating my MOBO's OC Genie, resetting window's index and reseating the RAM and CPU cooler in case they weren't installed properly, but nothing has worked.

Hello! I've had the same PC for about two years now, and since a month or two it's been having a problem. No matter the load (Be it just chatting and watching a video or playing a heavy game) the computer randomly turns both screens black, the audio loops the last half a second or so in a weird, scratchy way and then it resets...sometimes. If I'm unlucky it forces me to restart the whole PC. Sometimes it comes back within seconds but the monitors have no video signal, sometimes it comes back but the video/game/discord/all of the apps have bugged and need to be killed. Sometimes it just turns the computer off after a minute or so. I clean my PC regularly and a few months before this added three more fans to it and changed the thermal paste, so I don't think it's a temperature problem. I managed to catch both the CPU and GPU spiking to 100% use before the crash happened once, but haven't been able to reproduce it since it's utterly random and sudden. My specs are: Windows 10 Pro 64bits AMD FX 8350 Eight Core 16GB Ram (A single 8GB stick and two 4gb sticks) NVIDIA GeForce GTX1070 A SSD I use as the "C:" drive which only has windows and a few priority programs on it, and a HDD I use for anything else. MSI 970 Gaming as the motherboard. I sadly can't find the PSU model, but I remember it being Corsair, Bronze and around the 800W-850W ballpark. As far as I know, all drivers are updated. Thank you for your time!
