How is the startup time in safe mode? Also, does anything show up in the event log? As for the splash screen, try disabling the Full Screen Logo in the Boot Screen menu. Hopefully the screen is replaced with the POST boot messages and may provide a bit more detail. You may also want to reset...

From what I have gathered, the 0xc000000e codes are a result of the dual drives (SSD/HDD). For whatever reason, the system is having an issue when booting up because it does not know which drive holds the boot record. I don't believe the issue is the result of any defective hardware (e.g., bad...

Try going to Update & Security > Windows Update and then click the Advanced options button.Switch the setting to “Notify to schedule restart.”

Check the Device Manager > Network Adapters. If nothing is listed, check the Other Devices option, see if it is listed with a little yellow icon next to it. If you locate the controller under either option, try right clicking and select the "Update Driver" option. **Addendum From...

Ok, a few problems. https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/kkR6nn 1) The AMD 970 Vishera (FX-4350) bios firmware upgrade (if you have not already applied) 2) Your motherboard supports up to DDR3 1833 (2133 overclocked) but your sticks are rated at DDR3-2400 3) Your hard drive was not even listed on...

Patriot Viper DDR3-2400 240-pin DIMM 10 2x4GB 8GB Is that the correct one?

My guess would be this massive spike is due to a ruly Chinese kid, so disabling your firewall and blocking would probably make things worse. What model is your router?

That is fine, so long as they are both the same dual channel type and your motherboard can support 24gb you should be golden. The whole using two of the same kind of sticks in each slot was more important back when we first came out with DDR. If they are a different PC speed, they will run at...

Perhaps shoot your IT contact a quick email. There may be a keep-alive or time-out function they have accidentally assigned to your account versus your partner's. Have you tried logging in from his laptop while he uses yours?

Your motherboard seems good enough. What is your current RAM setup and how much background system noise do you have running while you are gaming? And are you gaming over a wireless connection?

Try popping in a bootable version of linux and see if you encounter the same problems.

It is a bit of a long exchange. But if you scroll towards the bottom of this link, you will find a solution that worked out well for another in your situation. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-3385079/laptop-crashes-waking-sleep.html Basically just driver errors that needed reinstalling...
