Ok you know you might be right, i finally used that crystal, the hard drive with my OS on it is in its caution phase right now. a screenshot is provided. But this doesnt explain my computer locks up while playing games, i never had this hard drive plugged in while i was using the SSD and when i tested games on the SSD my computer still locked up. However this now does explain why my PC is acting so sluggish

Try this too, download this: CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World and open the program and follow the steps in this snip.
This may give you a little bit of time, but the drive may have to be soon.
Try the steps for the audio devices, try the USB one first, it may have conflicts with the other two. It has help others who have the same error in event log.
you may not need the add in audio card since the motherboard has 7.1 audio, check the specs.

Ah when i record videos i need the usb in because it eliminates the static that occurs if its jacks only, but im pretty sure the audio was always like this never conflicting... nevertheless ill give it a try. On the hard drive note, is it possible to image the hard drive as it is now and then put it on a new hard drive and it would be pretty much an exact clone? (registry, users, programs, etc)Try this too, download this: CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World and open the program and follow the steps in this snip.

Also i did what you said with the hard drive and the condition changed back to good, funnily enough all sliders were only 1 right of zeroLast edited by MajorFoley; 05 Feb 2014 at 19:15.

Sometimes it doesn't take much slider movement to make the values zero.
Yes an image or clone of the drive will make an exact copy as it is, less any mechanical issues of course.
We have many folks here who like and use Macrium Reflect, unless you have one of your own you like.

That's the spirit! I have high hopes for one of the audio drivers screwing up. I mean one has been the culprit.

Sorry to hear that, lack of an audio driver won't cause a no-boot situation. What else did you do?
Why do those self-important techs want you to wait 5 days?

Fixed the non boot issue, dunno how, anyways the techs because of other computers and cos they dont work weekends! god damnit lol. And i dont trust leaving my computer there for a few days... if i wanted to do it on the day it would cost me an extra $150. so i will ring them tomorrow hopefully organize some way to enter queue without leaving my computer there. Mind you its gonna cost 45 to check and a further 45 if they need to remove a motherboard sigh.
