Would just bad ram cause problems with the scan and repair of the C drive I keep getting as well as corrupted files and Windows 11 not installing?

So I ended up doing a test and it failed right away. I was also starting to get a lot of other issues. The C drive scan and repair was back and Windows Defender completely dissapared one time until I did a restart. Tried disk cleaning and all that again but had no changes. Eventually I...

This will take a while, but if it fails at say 2800 does that mean I'll have to keep my RAM at 2600 from here on out and not get the full speed out of it?

Despite having fixed the disk check, RAM is still failing immediately with memtest86. Here are the HTML files of the results from the memtest. Each one on their own: Stick 1. and Stick 2. and If it helps here's a test with both sticks. That all said I haven't got a BSOD at all today.

There's no trace of Armoury Crate that I can find, its disabled in BIOS, and the task scheduler doesnt have anything related to Asus or Armoury Crate in it. Looking at the policy tab I see these two options, but nothing about lazy write.

I did this. Let it sit in BIOS for about 1h 45min but it never went in to sleep mode. It just sat there seemingly not doing anything. Eventually I exited into Windows where it did another scan and repair. check disk came back with 3 queued .log files for offline repair. Two were identical and...

So I did this and rebooted the computer and had a bit of a scary moment. The computer was stuck in a cycle of checking and repairing the C drive but never booting to windows. After running "chkdsk c: /v /scan /forceofflinefix" I restarted the computer and it again did the disk check. After it...

Sure thing

I did get rid of Armoury Crate, it is gone. Getting rid of it wasnt a problem. I'm still unsure what you want me to do with the RAM though. Below are screens of the BIOS and the only place I saw that had anything to do with timing. But like I said there's way more numbers than just the 4 you...

Thats odd. It looks like overclocking was happening from the Ryzen Master program and the AI Suit 3. I never even used "Ryzen Master". I downloaded it a couple years ago just to look at it but never did anything with it. I've now uninstalled Ryzen Master, Armoury Crate, and AI Suite 3. Used the...

I have done both of these things now. Cleared CMOS with a screw driver and shorting the pins. Reset BIOS to default. Ran tests with memtest86 one RAM stick at a time. Immediate fails for both Cleared CMOS by removing the battery for 30 seconds. Reset BIOS to default. Ran test with memtest86 one...

I have 32GB of RAM on 2x 16GB sticks. About 2 weeks ago I started getting frequent BSOD's but almost a different error code every time. I also get these disk error checks for the C drive after every restart whether its from a BSOD or not. It never says it finds errors. The most frequent error...

The headset I'm using comes with a USB wireless adapter. The only time it uses a 3.5mm jack is when I have the cord plugged in, but it was designed to be primarily wireless.

I got a new laptop this past weekend. An Acer Predator Helios 300 so far so good, but I've noticed one issue when I try to use a Sony Playstation Gold Wireless Headset with the computer. Windows only detects it as a mono speaker headset. It detects the microphone and that works fine but it only...

Okay that makes sense. All these sources of drivers and updates really muddies the waters.
