Will updating windows be enough? (Update in progress, so let's see what happens) Aside from that, if I do have to reinstall windows Is there a way to keep my currently installed programs (and maybe settings). I think i have seen such an option before, but i am not sure if it is possible.

When i try to wake PC from sleep, the fans start spinning but the display and peripherals don't get any signal. I changed the ram slots being used, At first the issue was solved. But now it is happening again. Not always, but many times. It it matters, the cpu is an i7 2nd gen, with a Q67...

Thanks to everyone for your valuable time. In the end i did a fresh install of windows, is working fine now. I did learn about tools like GParted and miniTool partition wizard. (I even used this ages ago to partition my old hdd, didn't know it could work here as well.)

I forgot to mention that was the price for new dram-less 128 gb ssd. (Which I bought actually) ones with DRAM start at $35 (Samsung 870 evo). There is also a Seagate barracuda (ZA480CV1A002) in between, but my guess is it is dram-less. Currently i am having buyers remorse, i bought hikvision...

Around 12 USD but being a student in 3rd world country, it has some significance.
