OK so to begin im just gonna say my specs

 

CPU - i7-7700HQ 

GPU - GTX 1070

RAM - 16GB DDR4, 2400MHz

Drives - 

   Primary - Samsung SSD 960 PRO 1TB

   Secondary - Unbranded 2TB Rotary Drive

 

 

This laptop is a pre-built from sager, which is actually part of the issue but i'll get to that in a second. Basically my problem is in the title, but its much more complex than that, so the game that I play all daay everyday is rust, 3500 hours on that piece of shit, its a relatively old game, i think 5 years old, nothing that my computer cant handle but it runs on unity, meaningh that it can only use 4 cores of my cpu, so ive turned hyperthreading off bc when it was on i got 40-80 fps (rust is very inconsistent i know) and when it was off i stayed about 60-120, keep in mind i have a 144hz monitor so ill take all the frames i can get.

 

But this problem came about a week ago when i wanted to customize the rgb for my keyboard, so i downloaded the clevo control panel (clevo is the mother-brand of sager i believe, i coudlnt find my SAGER laptop under their models but it came under clevo). It customized my rgb fine just how i wanted. Got home, opened rust or, literally anygame with hyperthreading off for that matter and it was unplayable, mouse stuttered so much i could barely turn around. I tried to fix it for like 2 hours, gave up and turned hyperthreading on, now all my other games worked perfectly (For Honor, Cod MW 2019) bc they can use more cores of the cpu without capping it with hyperthreading on, admittedly with like 2 or 3 less frames but that might just be a placebo but my real problem is with rust, my main game. So literally nothing would help apart from setting my priority for rust to below normal with hyperthreading off, which i didnt want to do because once again, that gave me like 50-100 and I dont want to settle, as i KNOW that my PC can handle better.

 

I continued to try to fix this for like 6 hours, i was soo fucking mad that i tried a system restore, which I should have probably tried earlier tbh, got an error everytime i did it (0x8007007e), was like, well fuck, so i backed up everything I needed to do a full system reset. Did that, got something along the lines of "System Reset failed, no changes were made". I did a sfc /scannow in cmd, ran TuneUp utilities to check for registry problems, it found some, fixed them, didnt fix either of my issues. So i went all out, tried to boot my system off a windows 10 usb i had lying around to FULLY REINSTALL. Didnt recognise the usb, like it showed up in BIOS but when i set boot priority to number 1, it would just boot off my drive which was number 2, so i removed the drive as a secondary boot drive completely from the list. It booted halfway and said "Please insert installation media and press any key or restart and set a boot device". I was like ok, maybe this usb somehow got fucked over the years, tried with my really old windows 7 usb to check if it was an issue with the usb, nope, exact same thing happened with my win 7 usb, so here i am, literally completely fucking stuck. I scanned for viruses, nothing, turned off HPET to try solve my original issue. Ive spent 10 hours scouring the internet, tried every solution for both issues known to man and i cannot find ANYTHING, only thing i can think of is coming here, so, thanks for reading my entire story, any help would be appreciated..... Also im 15 so dont throw the uHh bUy a NeW pC at me please, dont got money right now.

Do you have another windows computer? If so, you can create a updated windows installation tool which should work better (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10). The error you have, to the best of my knowledge, is a windows update error. The updated tool should work better and not have errors. The past 4 or so windows updates have had many issues and over the last few months microsoft has been fixing them. I have had issues with drivers etc... and had to fix them with the DISM command. You could also try tools like AIO or Hirens to try and repair issues if you can find a way to burn and boot from usb.

Hirens

DISM commands with internet (internet needed or ISO, please look up more information on what this will do)

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Hey, I do have another windows computer, but as I said before, my computer isnt recognising usbs, or booting off them at least. Im not sure what causes this but ill try to use those tools you sent me to repair. Thanks

One is linux based, make sure you disable secure boot or other stuff that can jack it up temporarily.

also from my understanding, hirens is just a preinstallation environment, i dont see how this would help me, just curious as to what I would do there

I would suggest pulling the windows key with the tools in window PE, bob or hirens  (if you don't have the key ), then reinstall windows with a updated installation tool made by the media creation tool. After a successful install a benchmark of hardware might be helpful. You can also recover critical files to another drive in windows PE before you reinstall like school work. 

 

AIO has a boot sector repair utility and a better tool is bob boot cd, yes it is pre-installation environment, but use the tools installed in that environment to fix the drive or windows installation; for example, you can use bootice to edit the boot record if you had linux with windows installed previously on the same drive but one OS is no longer there and junk is still in the boot sector.
