Computer Stuck on Loading Screen

[Crazie_Flash]

Hello all, so about a month or so ago, my pc would take about 15 minutes to boot into windows, with the post code Ad, and after some troubleshooting, I couldn’t really find and solve the problem, with potential solutions being the SSD failing, or even the motherboard failing. Now, after this 15 minute period, it sits on the windows loading screen (post code AA, or successfully out of post), forever. Now I’m pretty sure this is an SSD failure, but do you all agree with this conclusion?

No matter it is a SSD failing or not, the first thing you should do is try using another SSD that has an OS installed to check if it is a motherboard issue or not

I’m thinking of going and buying one tomorrow. But I assume it won’t have windows on it, so I’m kind of stuck.
