So I've got a dual drive setup right now. I've got a little ssd that holds windows 10 and a couple of games, and I've got a big disc drive that holds everything else. The disk drive still has windows 7 installed from back when it was my primary drive.
This morning I woke up and saw my computer had restarted overnight, and booted to Windows 7. I thought itt was weird, but a quick fix. I restarted, went into my UEFI setup (MOBO is an ASROCK z77) and looked for my ssd. It's no longer listed in my boot options.
I was having trouble with directx a couple weeks ago, and in the end microsoft support walked me through reinstalling windows 10. Since then, I've been getting fairly frequent freezes while on the internet, forcing me to shut down the whole system a lot of the time. I'm thinking that has something to do with my problems right now, since it seems to be a problem with the drive windows 10 is stored on. The only other thing I can think is that I got a bad update on windows 10 that bricked the drive, but I figure if something like that were going around I'd have seen it on the front page before posting this.
What do I do from here. Like I said, I don't have very much at all on the drive, and it's been giving me difficulties lately. I'm tempted to see if I can just wipe the whole thing and reinstall clean. I'll keep that in my back pocket for now though, since I'm sure there would be unforeseen consequences there.
