My options were: Quickheal www.quickheal.com Avast www.avast.com McAfee www.mcafee.com I compared which one was offering the best all around security and went with it. Quick heal was also advertised a lot around like on television/youtube ads etc. so maybe the marketing added to my decision. I also do not know that many AVs and I was only on Defender+Malwarebytes free since I built the PC. I want the reinstall to be the last option as I want to avoid re-installing everything along with the OS. Cause I have spare memory (but slower) and I would have used that for a while. Thank you for your reply!

Hey all So I put together a Ryzen 5000 system last year after the release of new CPUs. Since then I had no antivirus and my brother suggested we should buy one. We ended up buying Quick Heal Total Security a week ago and ran every test it offered. One of the tests was "Vulnerability scan" and it found 29 Windows related vulnerabilities. Here's where I might have f**ked up: I fixed many of the vulnerabilities with a single click within the antivirus itself and since then I've been facing start-up BSOD loops. After several BSODs with different codes each time like "IRQL not less or equal" or "memory management" or "kernel something something" along with other codes it used to start and function normally without any errors or performance issues. But since last night it refuses to boot. Goes in a BSOD loop forever. I tried re-installing windows blaming it on the antivirus/the changes it made under the "vulnerabilities" label. But I had a BSOD every time I booted via USB too. My take was to turn the PC on with old, spare 2x 8GB 2400mhz sticks that we had. I turned XMP off and tried booting and now it boots EVERY TIME, without any issue. Is this a RAM issue? Should RMA these sticks? Or should I try a fresh windows install and antivirus install without messing with any vulnerability fix?

And I had zero errors with both the tests.

Hello I recently built a new PC and I have been facing high ping in certain games since new PC was up and running. Used to get 5 ping on my local server in CSGO and Dota2, now each server has ~+30 ping, and some servers are now unplayable as my ping is now ~100 from usual 60-65. On my old system pings were fine but started facing 100%packet loss issues (maybe the patcher cable/port issue as the system was 3 year old) so I switched the patcher cable and nothing happened. I bought a TP-Link 300Mbps USB Adapter (TL-WN823N) and it had proper ping (60-65). Now my motherboard has Wifi too so I tried connecting using both wired and wireless, but I still face the ping issue. I also changed the port on my router, changed the patcher cable, nothing. Any advise? I never tweaked anything under network settings on old or new PC.

I am facing this issue since months where my wifi will randomly stop working unless I restart the router, and when this happens the wired connection (Desktop) works fine. I have about 5 devices connected at any given time (4 smartphones all times, and either a PS4 or a laptop). All devices will stay connected to wifi but cannot browse and sometimes the connection drops too, giving an "Incorrect password for XYZ" on my iPhone, "Obtaining IP address..." on Android devices, and "Cannot connect to this network" on Windows laptops. I got my router in March 2019. Router: DLink DIR-816 Router has a patcher cable going in the WAN port from a device (I dunno what that is, can provide images) that ISP installed when replacing my line with a fibre line. That device has another cable going in from a second device (again unknown, can provide images) which has the main ISP's cable plugged in. ISP's cable come in from a (I think unmanaged) switch.

Thanks in advance guys.
