Hello all! This is a last resort option before just retiring this laptop so any help would be appreciated.
Suddenly, in the past few months, my laptop seems to be having some issues reading/initializing my hard drive it seems. Symptoms I'm experiencing are the following examples:

1: League of Legends.
Launches fine. Login to the client. Join a game. But after I select my champion, the load screen which usually follows takes an average of 5-7 minutes to even appear. Once it appears, the loading bar progresses quickly(5 seconds.)

2.Amazon Game Client.
This client has a hard time even detecting my hard drive to install a game to. Occasionally it will work after a few restarts, but stop working shortly after.

Oddly enough, I'm able to install games and run them just fine using Blizzard's client.
I don't experience any issues while in any of these games.

Troubleshooting steps:

  • Replaced the Hard drive with an SSD.
  • Clean install of Win10. All updates completed.
  • BIOS Updated.
  • Run each app with admin permissions.
  • Asus support(they immediately resorted to repair, which they cannot do themselves.)
