Problem:

Often when I start my PC it freezes at Windows 8 loading, at the loading circle. There is no sound when this happen. And the OS is installed on an ssd, and the loading circle can take up to 4 times circleling round when the system is starting correctly, which is slow. Sometimes the loading cicle doesn't show up at all because it loads to fast. like it should.

I asked for help before and got some suggestions to find out what it could be or how to try to fix it but nothing worked.

I am asking for help one more time because I will give more and new info.

 

This is my first system that I builded, just so you know.

 

I did recently find out that all of my microsoft office 365 crashes when I try to make a new dokument. crashes always.

I have tried to reinstall, use the repairtool to office and tried run compatibility mode. Nothing works.

 

This is a list of what I have done to try to fix the Windows 8 loading freezes. (specs listed below)

Running stock BOIS setting.

Fast boot option, it didn't boot any faster

Sata mode is AHCI.

Updated the the BOIS.

Runned XMP 2400MHz and 1600MHz.

Overclocked the cpu to 4,2GHz.

Overvolted the cpu.

Runned 1 RAM stick at a time. frezzes with both.

Runned RAM stress test. 0 errors with memtest.

Runned sfc /scannow command. It found something and fix it and something it could not fix.

Reintalled Windows 3 times. I tried to make the system freeze on purpose when nothing was installed, but I faild. Then I tried to install the drivers to my network card. Under the install the system froze. And that had never happened before, I rebooted and tried to install it again and it frozs. This was a wireless network card and it was the only solution to get internet. So I reinstalled windows again. I tried to make it freeze under boot, but I faild. It didn't freeze when I installed the network drivers. When I tried to make it freezs after I installed the driver, but faild. After that I installed Office. It did not crash one time. I rebooted, didn't freeze. Then I updated windows, rebooted, didn't freeze. Then I installed Classic Shell, because I cant use Windows 8 without it, rebooted, it froze. I uninstalled it, but it still froze. Then I tested Office, it didn't crash. I said to myself that I couuld live with that. Then later on Office stated to crash again, after I installed some programs and games.

 

I do not have an CD Rom so I use usb flash to install OS.

 

Specs:

Motherboad: Asus Rog Maximus VI Hero

CPU: Intel 4770k

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 2400MHz 2x8GB

Graphics Card: Asus GTX 780 Directcu ii OC

SSD; Samsung SSD 840 Pro

Harddisk: Western Digital Black 1TB

Power Supply: Fractal Design Newton R3 1000W

Network Card: Asus PCE AC66

OS: Windows 8 Pro

I have good cooling.

 

I can play games and use the computer without problems otherwise.

I think I got most of it here now, If not say what you need to know, come with suggestions and I will be thankful.

And if you dont have any suggestions you can help me getting better in english by correcting me. :D
