Hi all,

I'm experiencing some issues on my pc:

- Sudden and extreme lag (as of this week)
- Starts happening randomly and persists until I do a hard reboot and reset bios each time. Though, it will happen no matter what if I load up a game.
- When I restart, I get an error: "Boot failure detected" "The system experienced a boot failure possibly due to incorrect configuration."
- I need to select "Load optimized defaults then boot" each time and it'll fix it for a while, but eventually it will start lagging again and the process restarts.

At first, I thought it was a hardware issue and I swapped out the PSU and GPU, but issue prevails.

Looking for some help on how to troubleshoot this and what else I could try.

Thank you!
