System failure. Please help

[BlackTech69]

Okay so I got the stupid crypto virus thing that has been floating around. Thankfully it didn't get anything important or wasn't backed up. I use the computer for my home studio and I had someone come over to record. It has been acting up recently and I think there may be a hardware failure somewhere. Maybe the board or cable because I have been having issues with the cd/dvd being detected but ignore it since I don't use it often. I will list what has been going on and what I did as a result.

 

- I setup the session in Pro Tools 11 and both mouse and keyboard (Wired) decide to stop working.

- I unplug then plug them back in. No change I hold the power button to shutdown.

- Restart the computer mouse and keyboard are working again.

- Setup a new session and after about 30 min of recording pro tools crashes and won't recover. Shut down normally.

- Restart the computer again and now I'm getting boot errors.

- I figure its the virus causing problems so I grab the Windows Disk and prepare for a fresh install.

- Start the install process, get 10% in and it says cannot detect cd/dvd driver.

- Decided to retry and system wont detect cd/dvd drive.

- Create install flash drive and complete install.

- Log in and system doesn't detect the wireless card. (also boots very slowly).

 

Full System Specs:

- Evga Z87 Classified board

- Intel Core i7 4770k Processor (Stock Clock)

- 32GB Kingston Hyper X memory

- 240GB Kingston Hyper X SSD

- Evga GTX760 SC graphics card (Stock Clock)

- Intel Wireless ac w/ Bluetooth 4.0 on PCI riser card

- Evga Supernova 750g

- 2x Seagate 2TB HDD in RAID 1

 

Im pulling my hair out and I have a session to do tomorrow. Please any opinions will be greatly appreciated.

Windows won't detect that wireless card without driver, download the drivers on another machine and put them a USB.

 

Did you do a UEFI install? first couple of boots can be a bit slower till you get all the drivers installed.

hard drive failure? Check it with crystal disk, also download your driver from the pc manufacturers website, find your model number on the bottom of your pc or in bios. 

 

Also if a hardrive fails it can affect your system in many ways, wont have to be your OS drive.

 

I once worked on a pc where the main drive with the OS worked fine and the other drive whas broken, this pc would do frezzes/crash, BSOD drivers stopped working and this broken drive i even formatted it, all the problems whas still there on the pc, i checked the drive whit crystal disk told me the drive whas critical, i replaced the drive and the pc had no problems after that.

 

Also that pc would sometimes do random restarts on boot becouse the bios would activate that broken drive which maked it crash.

@Beltboy I finally got it up an running minus the wireless card. I installed all drivers direct from Intel with no luck. I went into device manager and the PC recognizes the card as a network device but still wont activate. Its no big deal because I remembered that I can use my cell as a wireless adapter. As long as its working then I'm good. Shouldn't be on the internet anyway.

 

@Visler7000 I will check the HDD with crystal disk. Will it check both drives as one since it is in RAID 1 or scan them separately.

crystal dose not support raid  but whit raid u got the Intel Rapid Storage technology u can look in there if it says normal your fine
