I am running Windows 10 Pro. My computer had BSOD quite frequently these few days. It's kind of weird. I was unable to replicate the problem if I just use it for like 1-2 hours. If I use it for a little longer, BSOD will occur when I am trying to shut down. There were no problems at all when I am using it. It is not interrupting my usage but it is really annoying to see BSOD every time whenever I am shutting down.
I've a Dell XPS 15 9550 (512GB SSD PCIe) that gives me a BSOD after at least two hours of uptime. It doesn't create any dump, it only gives me the error on the BSOD critical_process_died. I alredy tried to do various clean install of the OS redownloaded a lot of times and to set from BIOS the drive to RAID in AHCI with various manually installed driver without any result.. I don't know what can I do anymore..
My Windows 10 machine is stuck in Shutting Down mode and will not respond to any action, including turning it off. When I turn it back on it is still in Shutting Down mode. How do I get out of this mode, and what causes it?
Since updating (free, via download) from Win 7 to Win 10 I have had a few problems. I have 3 internal HD: (1) System drive (SSD, 500GB), (2), Media Drive (Seagate 3TB), (3) Documents Drive (500 GB). I also have a USB backup drive that the computer can see.
Seemingly at random, but more usually the Media Drive, doesn't appear when I boot the computer. If I boot the computer and go to BIOS all of the drives appear. Currently the computer in "this PC" recognizes 1 and 3.
Additionally it takes around 5-10 minutes to boot, sometimes hangs and has to be hard reset.
I have had a few BSOD as well, at seemingly odd times. The computer will run with the drives it sees fairly well and eventually BSOD. I should note that sometimes the BSOD is not the one I'm used to from previous Windows installs - it's really just blue with no info.
I have physically reordered the SATA cables (changed the drives to different cables) and this works for a time but eventually the problem persists.
Finally, I thought about doing a clean system install, but was wondering how you do that if you upgraded via free download (i.e. I don't have a disk - there must be an easy solution for that I am sure).
I recently started having issues after my brother downloaded some malware on my pc now i get 100% hdd use on 0.1 mb evey time the gpu load is at above 60% or 70%. I have attached my dumps. All the BSODs were in CS:GO and now i cant eaven play any games without the game just stopping because of the hdd usage.

I found out the reason for my hdd stopping while under load was that one of my 6 pins was a 2molex to 6pin adapter and one of the molex cables was also the one powering my hdd through a sata power cable.So i plugged in a different one and now it's fine.
Background: For the past few weeks or so I was on W8.1 on my SSD and Arch Linux on my SSHD. However now when loading up Arch I get a { DRDY } error presumably on the SSHD, and W8.1 crashed very soon after logging in. I noticed that sometimes that the computer does not freeze until I open up a game (Total War 2). TW2 had been working fine previously. I would go ahead and reset/refresh my main W10 drive but I'm not sure if that's the issue. I have never gotten a BSOD just a freeze then sometimes black screen with a mouse.
What I've tried: I consistently virus scanned with Malwarebyte's and Defender to find nothing.I hoped upgrading to W10 would fix the issue, but it did not./sfc scannowSMART check (no issues)check Task Manager/used Proc Explorer (or variants) can not see cause of disk usage spike
What I believe could be the issue: I want to say the drives are failing, but I'm honestly dumbfounded.I've read it's possible to the SATA cables.
Tried creating another user account, and so far no issues with the new account. Also added some logs, if more are needed I can add them.
I am surprised that this is not a topic of discussion. On my laptop which I migrated from windows 7 to 10, I always have a high CPU usage for Microsoft Search filter host. A search of the internet shows that this is an issue.
I have tried to disable with no luck. My next attempt will be a change in registry.
Isn't the page file supposed to fill up when your system starts running out of RAM? I know there's some preemptive paging, but I'm at 99% even though my RAM usage is 40% (of 8GBs). How come?
I am on the east coast and my computer has always reflected EST but with Windows 10, it shows six hours off when I set it for EST. I have to set it to -11 hours off from GMT to get the time correct. That would be fine but that time zone does not allow for Daylight Savings time changes so it's OK now but when there is a time change, this computer will be off by an hour the next day.
I updated from windows 7 and the computer kept hanging so I did a complete install and am seeing this time problem now. I tried using a NIST program that syncs with the government time server but Win 10 won't let it sync saying I don't have administrator privileges. That is a separate issue I'll have to look into but as it stands, I have this computer set for EST, I am 100 miles from New York City and it is showing 4:50PM but the real time for me is 10:50AM.
While Windows 10 was updating the electric went out. PC will not boot up. Did restore PC, remove all of my files. PC still shows Resetting this PC 30% for Hours.
I don't know if this is a 10 problem or computer problem. My internet will drop every few hours while I am using it. I originally thought it was my cable provider, and most of the time I rebooted my modem, and this seemed to correct the problem. Then I just rebooted the computer and it also solved the problem.
Windows 10 seems to like to scan my entire computer everyday which takes about 2-3 hours at startup. I can't get any work done. I am spending most of my time in the morning waiting...waiting...waiting. When it isn't doing these random scans, it's great and fast.
I have tried rebooting to stop the scans. Often times not able to use the shut down button, so turning off at the main switch...then all havic starts...screens are all messed up...one works the other doesn't, the font are different on each, it is all so random. I realize that Windows 10 is the new Big Brother...watching....watching, but give it a rest, don't do this during working hours (Australia time).
I began an update for windows 10 and it has been stuck at 59% for hours is that normal or is it frozen and if it is frozen is turning my computer off and back on going to damage it? What should I do. This is on a brand new computer .
I was prompted to upgrade to Windows 10 today on my Windows 8.1 Dell laptop. The upgrade has been sitting at 75% for several hours now and doesn't seem to be progressing. Should I leave it be or take some action?
I had a problem with my computer and the guy at Asus told me to du a windows 10 reset and now it has been stuck on 58% for a few hours. What am I supposed to do? If I turn it off i fear damageing the harddrive or the system all together.
After restarting to start the upgrade to Windows 10 (from Windows 8.1), it's been stuck at 38% in the Configuring updates for windows 10 screen for about 3 hours now, and I'm not sure what to do. Is a reboot safe?
I recently updated to win 10 from win 7. After that i wanted to start fresh so i did a factory reset. I started the reset 9 hours ago and it stuck on 35 % of resetting. I don't know what to do because a video i saw on youtube said it will take 15-30 minutes to reset.
Ever since I installed windows 10 on my surface pro 3 the batter life dropped from 5-6 hrs 1 - 2 hrs I did a clean install 3 times but this doesn't work. The tackpad has an issue too. I turned off the allow right click but it doesn't work.t I tried going back to windows 8.1, but they some how block user to download apps from store I always get an error "this app wasn't installed" I tried all possible solutions but no luck. The onenote app for windows 10 sucks too I hate windows 10 . always put on battery saver even on 100% charge. And the Cortana is disabled too
I installed Windows 10 fairly quickly on my laptop, and firlgured it'd be just as painfree to do so on my desktop, but the install was stuck at 'Copying files - 48%' for hours. I figured that since it was just copying files, I would just restart the PC and start over, but now my PC does not want to output video. On startup, I don't even see the normal BIOS screen, and there is only HD activity for about a second after I power the PC back on.
Yesterday I installed some updates on my computer, however when it was rebooting it sat there for about an hour doing nothing. Eventually I force turned it off and tried to reboot it, however it kept doing the same thing. I looked up any fixes I could find, the only thing I saw was to try and boot it in safe made (Ctrl-Alt-Del then holding shift while clicking restart) even that still just sat at the red loading screen with the dots spinning in circles. I force shut it down a few more times and retried it, until I finally just let it sit there and finish, hoping it would have a time out feature. Well eventually it booted to the login prompt after 4 hours.
New issue is that whenever I close my laptop to put it to sleep, and then reopen it it looks fine but when I swipe away the cool picture, theres no login prompt. It looks just like the screen when you press ctrl alt delete. So I told it to do a regular restart, and upon rebooting it was stuck at the spinning dots on the red screen for 3 more hours before it booted. I understand I can just turn off putting the computer to sleep when I close the lid, and just darken the screen. I've already done that, I'm looking for a more permanent fix.
I had to reset my computer. I selected to keep my file have because I didn't have any backups at the time. The reset completed successfully but now windows has been stuck at a please wait screen for the past 24 hours. Here's the link to show you what is happening [URL] ....
