Started having some odd issue with my PC, had originally thought it was just my Windows install getting corrupted but after reinstalling the OS it's doing it again. It will POST without issue and start loading Windows but sits there for 10-20 minutes before it'll finally load into the OS. Odd thing is this happens also for the Windows installation media but loading into my Manjaro OS works without issue.
Was able to get it to stop doing this by resetting my BIOS using the button on the back of my motherboard, but after playing a game and it entirely freezing up on me that is no longer working. Wondering if this is some hardware issue at some level? Or could this be hardware starting to fail? As I said for a few times I could clear cmos with the button on the back of my mobo and it'd resolve the issue at least for a bit. but issues return at some point.
Last night when I had gone to bed, I put the system to sleep but when I got home after work it was on but sitting on black screens and my keyboad and mouse weren't on. Had to hold power switch to turn off the system and when I turned it back on it had an error about the system posting into safe mode because of failing to POST previously. After resetting CMOS it booted into Windows without issue and I had started playing games when after about 20 minutes it complete froze and had to power cycle again where the issues loading into Windows came back.
Specs;
i7 8700k (Prior to this, it was OC'd to 5Ghz @ 1.35v - Had it set to this OC since I bought it in Oct '17. Always had an AIO cooling it and never saw it reach above 80)
ASUS GTX 1080 Ti 11G
ASUS ROG Maximus X Formula
4x8 GSkill TridentZ RGB (3200Mhz)
EVGA SuperNova 1300G2
Currently OS is install in a 500GB Samsung 970 EVO Plus, but issues were persistant on a 860 Pro.
Honestly not sure where to even begin trying to figure out what is going on. Would say it seems like some hardware issue but not sure that'd be the case with being able to load into Manjaro perfectly fine and can stay in that OS without any system freezes or issues at all.
