Reinstalling/Wiping Windows

Go to solution Solved by danomicar,

I would highly recommend just giving windows a fresh install and redownloading all of your games. I'd only create a backup of your games if your bandwidth is limited.

My PC has been having some issues recently, some weird things happening in games and some crashes, blue screens of death (just one), and pretty bad rx 480 perf, the drivers are also kinda messed up (I've got 6 Amd Display audio Devices) should I reinstall? EDIT: I think I will just do a reset, but is there any way of resetting without having to redownload games such as GTA V? Maybe moving them elsewhere, and moving them back during install I find works in steam? Any ideas? 2nd EDIT: Just got the same blue screen twice win32k.sys failed SYSTEM SERVICE EXCEPTION This generally happens due to incompatible drivers, I think it may either be my RX 480, or the PS3 Controller drivers I use, but I have used the second for years on multiple PCs with no issues.
