System Freeze after bootup; works fine in safe mode
Hi Guys,
I have been facing this issue since Feb,2015, system works fine in safe mode but when I boot up in normal mode it starts freezing within few minutes of usage. I usually fix this by reinstalling OS. Today it happened for 4th time, so I am little worried. Did quite a few stuffs before reinstalling OS, which I am listing out below:
1. Tried disabling audio driver, didnt work
2. Tried to check bad sector errors using chkdisk( Got few index file errors which got fixed, at least that's what it informed me), but still I was facing the issue.
3. Ran a HDD health check from WD since I am using WD blue 1tb HDD. Tests failed, customer support suggested to get a new one.
Since all these steps failed and I am right now not in a condition to buy a new HDD i did a reinstall of OS and it seems to be working fine. Can you please suggest me if i really should replace HDD or is there some other solution.
System Details are below:
HDD - WD Caviar blue 1 tb
CPU- AMD FX 8350
GPU Saphire ATI radeon HD 7870 2gb DUal-X
PSU- Corsair CX 600
Ram 2 X 4gb(1 XCorsair Vengeance and 1 x Gskill)
